Response to SBC Presidents on Critical Race Theory (Rick Armstrong)

December 30, 2020 by Guest Blogger

In my view, Critical Race Theory is neither primary nor necessary for followers of Christ to formulate a comprehensive, effective ministry that addresses the evils of white supremacy and racism in American society. God’s Word is the true lamp to our feet and light to our path. Nevertheless, we have a Christian and moral responsibility to do everything we can to eradicate racism from every area of the church and within each community where our churches are located. Holy Scripture is our first and highest authority to be consulted in overcoming any sin in the church and the world. Our SBC … [Read more...] about Response to SBC Presidents on Critical Race Theory (Rick Armstrong)

A Letter from Dr. Jamie Dew to the NOBTS Faculty

December 24, 2020 by Guest Blogger

We received this letter from a friend of the NOBTS community. It was addressed to the faculty of NOBTS which was circulated around noon yesterday. After receiving the letter we contacted Dr. Dew for permission to post it here. Upon our request and our encouragement to him that this is an important statement which we believe could be a healing salve in the midst of our family strife he gave us permission to do so. Dear NOBTS & Leavell College Faculty, Greetings and Merry Christmas to you all. I hope that you are having a restful break and that you are enjoying your time with family and … [Read more...] about A Letter from Dr. Jamie Dew to the NOBTS Faculty

SBC First Vice President and President of the National African American Fellowship of the SBC Marshal Ausberry, pastor of Antioch Baptist Church in Fairfax, VA, released the following statement this past Friday. You can also see the statement along with an interview with Baptist Press here. December 11, 2020 Over the last week and a half I have received much communication related to the Council of Seminary Presidents’ statement and related comments published in the Baptist Press on November 30, 2020. Let me say that first and foremost I and the National African American Fellowship of … [Read more...] about Response to Seminary Presidents’ Statement (Marshal Ausberry)

Look at Us! (Dr. CB Scott)

October 30, 2020 by Guest Blogger

Dr. CB Scott has been a pastor and an administrator both at SBC seminaries and colleges. He is now a DOM in Kentucky. He was a key player in the early days of blogging. He is an ardent Auburn Tigers fan. War Eagle! Former VP Joe Biden said something at the end of the recent debate that really made me think. He stated, "Look at us." I did exactly as he asked. Then I looked through both him and President Donald Trump. I looked so far through them both that I saw behind Mr. Biden his running mate, Senator Harris. Looking through and behind Mr. Trump, I saw Vice President Pence. Then it … [Read more...] about Look at Us! (Dr. CB Scott)

Discipleship Gap (by Jimmy Meek)

October 7, 2020 by Guest Blogger

Why are “professing” followers of Jesus not being a major part of the solution to our broken and divided American culture? I have been thinking a lot lately about where we have missed it over the years in training up believers to worship the person of King Jesus, and to delightfully be “all in” with His mission to bring God’s glory to the nations. A short article will not answer this huge subject, but I am coming to believe that we have over-complicated the matter. In a life-on-life relationship, if we helped a believer know how to pray, study their Bible, share their faith—and then reproduce … [Read more...] about Discipleship Gap (by Jimmy Meek)

Nine Takeaways from LifeWay’s Theology Report (Scott Douglas)

September 16, 2020 by Guest Blogger

It's fitting to write this while our church is hosting a weekly homeschool community through Classical Conversations. CC's motto is "To Know God and make Him known." It permeates everything they do. I hear my wife singing to her group of "Apprentices" about the Boston Tea Party and the class directly across the hall is using a clap/stomp beat to learn Latin. At the core of the CC curriculum is knowing God, who is the author of Truth and has revealed Himself to us. Recently the 2020 State of American Theology report was released by Lifeway Research. For research nerds this was like Christmas … [Read more...] about Nine Takeaways from LifeWay’s Theology Report (Scott Douglas)

On Diverse Reading Lists: A Friendly Response to Denny Burk (Griffin Gulledge)

September 8, 2020 by Guest Blogger

This was originally posted on Griffin's website, Contra Mundum (griffingulledge.com). It is reposted here with permission.  Disclaimer: During my time in Louisville, Denny Burk was the associate pastor of the church where I was a member. We maintain a friendly relationship to this day, and this post should be read as no exception to that. I spent some time yesterday reading and thinking about Denny Burk’s recent reflections posted on his blog entitled “The Dead-end of Research Justice.” Burk can always be relied upon to interrogate the demands of an ever-secularizing culture on … [Read more...] about On Diverse Reading Lists: A Friendly Response to Denny Burk (Griffin Gulledge)

A Good Reverse-Bivocational Option (Scott Wells)

July 16, 2020 by Guest Blogger

Editor: After a recent article discussing bivocational pastoring options, a regular reader, Scott Wells from Ohio, sent this to me. This was prompted by responses to the recent post “Is the small, single full-time clergy staff church a luxury churches can no longer afford?”  I am what I would call a reverse bi-vocational.  In addition to serving as a full-time pastor, I also serve part-time as a chaplain in the National Guard.  I would like to make a case for why it can be a win-win for smaller churches and their pastors. An NG chaplain will miss a minimum of two Sundays per year because … [Read more...] about A Good Reverse-Bivocational Option (Scott Wells)

Letter to SBC Leaders June 4, 2020 (Rick Armstrong)

June 27, 2020 by Guest Blogger

Dear SBC Leaders, I recently read your joint statement addressing the death of George Floyd. Calling for the end of racial inequality in how America distributes justice to African American men and boys is appreciated. Unfortunately, your statement is simply not enough. After we have cried out to God in prayer against racial evil and you have posted a statement advocating justice for all Americans, regardless of race or economic considerations, there are some things that the SBC must do to make our Convention better. Who am I that I should be listened to on this matter? I am a Black man, … [Read more...] about Letter to SBC Leaders June 4, 2020 (Rick Armstrong)

What Father’s Day Means to Me (Stephan Scott)

June 23, 2020 by Guest Blogger

Stephan's bio appears below, but he is the son of our friend, Dr. CB Scott. This article appeared originally in Focus on the Family and is republished with permission. Father’s Day is to me is about being thankful to the men in our lives who take on the responsibility and obligations of guiding us through life. Most of the time, taking that responsibility begins at the birth of their child. But, sometimes God gives children their father through other paths. When a man becomes a father, he takes on new obligations and expectations. I do not know this from … [Read more...] about What Father’s Day Means to Me (Stephan Scott)
