Southern Baptist Pastors: A Must Read Letter

Open Letter to All Pastors of Churches in the SBC

Dear Pastor,

Let me first clarify that this letter is for Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) pastors in general. I am well aware that what you are about to read does not include all pastors – at least not in totality.

…What is really so remarkable about the question of SBC decline is not the decline itself, but rather the simple answer that is so obvious no one will talk about with any seriousness openly in the SBC.

Read the whole thing!

@ Les,
That's funny :-)

Now a comment on the comments at the linked site:

What's up with wanting to picket Red Lobster? Is it because some of their waiters are gay? Didn't understand that one.

Les,

My bad! I guess I forgot! The 10% even violates the 80/20 rule.

I thought Dr. Kelley already answered the problem of the decline in the SBC: Calvinists! :)
