I did not think they would be able to do it, but the powers-that-be who have not been pleased with some of the things that we have written in the last few months and a great injustice is being done. A secret group of powerful men has convinced a judge in Nashville that SBC Voices, in using the term "SBC" has falsely presented ourselves as the official voice of the Southern Baptist Convention.  They have threatened us with a multi-million dollar lawsuit if we do not shut down. We have secured the services of Howell Scott, who was on the "O.J. Simpson Dream Team" with Johnny Cochran and … [Read more...] about SBC Voices is BEING CLOSED

Longtime blogger Tim Rogers has announced plans to set up a second Pastor's Conference in Phoenix this summer, because so many Baptists are upset with the list of speakers that were announced by Vance Pitman for "Aspire", the established Pastor's Conference. While details are still sketchy, there have been a few speakers and musicians announced. Keynote Speaker:  Steve Anderson from Faithful Word Baptist Church in Tempe, Arizona will be delivering some old-fashioned Baptist, fire and brimstone preaching. Tim has released a clip of a sermon he will be presenting himself, addressing … [Read more...] about Tim Rogers Announces Second Pastor’s Conference in Phoenix

I just got a copy of the first sermon preached by the former editor of SBC Voices, Matt Svoboda.  It was a blessing to me, I'm sure it will be to you as well.  He has really developed into a FINE preacher!  You can almost feel the anointing.   … [Read more...] about Matt Svoboda’s Latest Sermon

SBC Voices is pleased to announce that we are one of the official distributors of Tom Ascol's latest CD with his quartet, "The John 3:16 Boys." Ascol's last album "Whosoever Will" went multi-platinum, and he has now added the beautiful tenor voice of Timmy Brister, the deep bass of Al Mohler and the stunning baritone of Mark Dever to many of the songs.  Expectations run high on this one. The album is entitled, "The Savior is Waiting: Great Invitation Hymns" and includes both Ascol's solos and four-part harmonies. The first single will be, "Let Jesus Come Into Your Heart." Look at these … [Read more...] about Tom Ascol and “The John 3:16 Boys” – Latest CD Released!

I have heard people talk a lot of trash about Mark Driscoll (mostly insinuation and the rehearsal of old stories).  I have to admit that I've not spent hours researching the man, but this I know.  Every time I've listened to his sermons or read his teachings, I have been impressed with the theological accuracy, the uncompromising commitment to even unpopular biblical truth, and an amazing ability to communicate. Anyway, here is a clip on our topic du jour. … [Read more...] about Mark Driscoll: “Hell Is the Wrath of God in Effect”

Since we've all been discussing heretics recently, I thought I would rework a post I put up over at sbcIMPACT!  I hope when you are done, you will forgive me the title! I would request that you put down your stones for a moment and hear what this heretic is trying to say. I do not believe that I am advocating heresy and I am certainly not recommending that we abandon prayer.  The title was provocative, and intentional.  I risked the wrath of my readers to make a simple point about prayer, one I feel is important.  Actually, if you get a hold on this principle, it might actually be a … [Read more...] about God Does Not Answer Prayer!

I have to admit a small degree of jealousy of David Platt.  I have preached this exact point myself.  But somehow, it just sounds more compelling and powerful coming from him.  Most of you probably read Provocations and Pantings (you should if you don't) and have already viewed this, but I thought that I would copy this over here for those few of you who have not seen it at Timmy Brister's site. Here, David Platt asks a simple question. With all of the Rob Bell discussion that has gone on, do our actions really validate our belief that those without Christ will spend eternity in hell? Is … [Read more...] about Do We Really Believe What We’re Saying? by David Platt
