Take the CP quiz, if you’re up to it.

August 27, 2022 by William Thornton

True/False questions, so that you have a 50/50 chance of getting in right. Use a coin if necessary:

  1. The Cooperative Program is our oldest giving program.
  2. The CP is our largest and wealthiest SBC giving program.
  3. Most CP receipts go to the mission boards and seminaries.
  4. SBC churches give around 10% of their undesignated offerings to the CP.
  5. The CP is as old as the ages of Bart Barber and Adam Greenway combined.
  6. The SBC portion of the CP was actually less than the two big mission offerings, Lottie Moon and Annie Armstrong.
  7. Generally, churches are giving less to CP and more to designated SBC offerings.
  8. SBC giving plans may be described as “cooperative,” not “societal.”
  9. The sex abuse scandal has hurt the CP.
  10. The Executive Committee decides how to distribute CP funds.

 

Let’s see how smart SBC Voices readers are.
