Areas of Contention in the Southern Baptist Convention
In today's episode, Cory and Trent take a break from their study through the book of Revelation and talk about what they believe are "areas of present contention within the Southern Baptist Convention."
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the Southern Baptist Convention was unable to gather in 2020, and while "absence often makes the heart grow fonder," it seems our distance has only caused dissension. With racial tensions generally on the rise, particular cultural ideologies becoming popularized, and complementarian convictions being met with increased hostility, a fracture in our fellowship is noticeable, if not undeniable.
In this episode, Cory and Trent discuss three important issues they believe will be addressed at the SBC this year messengers need to be aware of:
1) Resolution 9 (CRT/Intersectionality)
2) Complementarianism (Female Pastors)
3) Presidential Election/Entity Discussion (present factions are visible and represented by presidential candidates)
