We had some discussion and good questions – only one embarrassing speech – and passed the new amendments and system on sexual abuse with overwhelming majorities.
Honestly, they were basically unanimous.
Amazing.

Thankful for the show of unity in protecting the most vulnerable among God’s people. The SBC churches are mandated by God to stand for all that is good. This is good. Praise the Lord!
Is there a way to watch a replay of that portion of the meeting?

Now that the talk is over, the action must begin.
Although I did not agree with all the logic explained by the Executive Committee concerning their word choice in the amendment (I personally think it’s a little too broad and could be a subject of division if we ever have to exclude a church), I appreciated the spirit and demeanor of Dr Floyd in his answers to the questions posed. However I thought Chairman Stone displayed a condescending attitude in his responses to questions concerning the motion and to the honest and appropriate question concerning the search for EC and SWBTS Presidents.
