Reading some Spurgeon in 2021

January 9, 2021 by Andrew Wencl

After going on a nearly two-and-a-half-year hiatus and transitioning to a new editor and research team, The Lost Sermons of C. H. Spurgeon are back with Volume IV. Courtesy of Broadman and Holman Publishers, I’m glad to bring you up to speed on the latest addition to this series. First, a little background on Charles […]

Is Biblical Illiteracy the Church’s Biggest Problem?

January 8, 2021 by Mark Terry

Last month I read an article in The Christian Post (Dec 3, 2020), entitled “Biblical Illiteracy Utmost Problem Facing Global Evangelicalism.” Leah Klett’s article summarized an interview with Thomas Schirrmacher, the new secretary-general of the World Evangelical Alliance. Schirrmacher stated, “Our biggest problem is that Bible knowledge is fading away. This is the utmost problem […]

Five current church practices that have me scratching my head…

January 8, 2021 by William Thornton

…and concluding that my day may indeed be past. Clergy temp staffing agencies. The idea that the person who fills the pulpit or who leads worship of Almighty God, or who teaches students or other church staff can be interchangeable, that is, it doesn’t really matter who the person is, is foreign to me. Filling […]

Trump, the GOP, and a Primer in Self-Destruction

January 6, 2021 by Dave Miller

I will admit, last night’s vote in Georgia stunned me. I wanted the GOP to win those. It is not that I passionately pro-GOP these days, but I am unenthused about the idea of the Democrats having unfettered control of government for the next couple of years. They can implement some policies that will be […]

Are you ready for the Dem agenda?

January 6, 2021 by William Thornton

Democratic turnout was on fire and it looks like both Republican candidates lost here in my home state. Baptist minister Warnock has a lead of over 50k votes. Jewish candidate Ossoff (dude is 33 years old) around 15k. My punditry is not so hot. I thought both Dems would lose. My post-election analysis is on […]

A Revelatory College Football Playoff

January 5, 2021 by Dave Miller

Sports tells us a lot about ourselves. We are prone to idolatry and false priorities, but there is something I have noticed on social media proclamations about the college football playoffs this year that I believe reveals something about our culture and our nature. If I had a nickel for every time I’ve read the […]

Unique Georgia election today

January 5, 2021 by William Thornton

…and more has been spent on the two Georgia U.S. Senate seats than is received for the SBC Cooperative Program (national allocation) and both major mission offerings combined. What I have to show for it is a stack of about 70 pieces for slick mail, all but a couple from Republican and Republican friendly PACS […]

What shall we talk about in 2021?

January 2, 2021 by William Thornton

SBC Voices published 265 articles in 2020, about one per weekday. We are a Southern Baptist site so SBC stuff dominates what appears here. COVID-19, politics, and CRT/I sucked almost all the air out of this place last year. While one hopes that the pandemic will recede and that in a non-election year discussions will […]

What you read most on Voices in 2020

January 1, 2021 by William Thornton

Double Trouble for the IMB, Mark Terry. The former IMB missionary and seminary professor wrote of our IMB personnel being evacuated from many parts of the  world due to COVID-19. This and the financial impact of the virus made for the “double trouble.” Fortunately, IMB was and is in a solid financial position. Reports for the […]

At the Heart of the CRT Debate – at Least for Me (Daryl C. Cornett)

December 31, 2020 by Guest Blogger

The acrimony in the debate about Critical Race Theory in the SBC is reaching new heights. I believe we must have this discussion, but it need not tear us apart like it is currently. It is a deeply emotional and complex issue with great importance regarding our identity and our commitments as Southern Baptists.  On […]

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 […]

Lost and Found

December 29, 2020 by Mark Terry

Our church keeps a lost and found box in the church office. Folks leave behind Bibles, umbrellas, sunglasses, coffee mugs, and all sorts of things. Probably, you have a lost and found box, too. I’ve been thinking that in 2020 our churches lost some things and found some things. Lost Things Twelve weeks of in-person […]
