A courageous and convictional leader is willing to share uncomfortable facts. That’s not nay-saying or barn-burning, just truth-telling.

Pastors, let’s help one another be faithful in ministry through giving to The Shepherd’s Rest retreats through the @BaptistNetwork. My wife and I are giving personally $100/mo. Would you join us?

Total CP gifts from SBC Churches: 2007-2008. $548,205,099 2023-2024. $446,641,957 A drop of over 100 million in 16 years. Nashville, we have a problem.

What has happened to the SBC over the last 6 years? This excellent video tells the story. As a Network, we warned of this decline and sought to bring biblical solutions. We continue to serve congregations by helping them think biblically about how to bring course correction to the SBC. This is why we encourage churches sending messengers to the SBC to vote for @WillyRice. Dr. Rice has been transparent concerning his own journey and realization of the issues. He stands squarely on the opposite side of the establishment class of the SBC that has perpetuated the false narratives that have led to distrust and decline. #SBC26

Pastors, let’s pray for one another’s Worship Services. If you leave a comment with your church’s name, I’ll pray for y’all too.

Monday is March 16th (3/16). We encourage all churches to include a special prayer time in their Worship Services tomorrow to pray for evangelism opportunities on 3/16. Our friends, @_March316, have deemed this day an International Day of Evangelism.

Local churches in the Network have ongoing relationships with local churches around the world. This week, we have heard of reports from Ethiopia, Uganda, Kenya, Czech Republic, and others. You too can be involved in this movement!

UPDATE FROM ETHIOPIA: Eight people were saved and 150 local church pastors were trained and encouraged. Continue praying for Tom Hatley as he continues to share the gospel, train pastors, and serve over the weekend.

Please join me, H.B. Charles, Lynn Hyatt, David Tarkington, and Zach Terry for a free lunch for pastors with Willy Rice on March 25 at First Baptist Jacksonville. RSVP at the link below.

Join us in praying for Dr. Steve Gaines.

@BaptistCompendi We are working diligently to strengthen doctrinally faithful and distinctly Baptist churches for the glory of God.

@BaptistNetwork The mission field in the U.S. is in DIRE need. In our zeal for overseas missions, we have forsaken the tending to the vineyards in this country. Baptists need to remedy their thinking. Large regions in this country are spiritually barren. Bring back local pastor-theologians.

Here are several facts about North America: ➜ Less than 24% of adults have no religious affiliation. ➜ About 13% of adults in North America attend an Evangelical church regularly. ➜ Only 14% of adults believe the Bible should be taken literally. ➜ The harvest is not only overseas, but also in our backyard. Would you like for your local church to be involved in church planting or church revitalization in North America? Contact our team today and we’ll get you connected with those who are building and supporting healthy churches.
