12 Witnesses

A few days ago I posted the story “Shock & Awe” which centered around the practical fallout of the IMB BOT policies newly in place. As a matter of integrity, I need to make a correction within the story.

I had told about a local veterinarian, who is also a deacon and trustee of our church. I mentioned that, under the new policies, he would be ineligible to serve as an IMB missionary. He grew up in an Assemblies of God church, but has been a member of ours, with his family, for more than a decade, now. After talking with his wife, I learned that he was baptized as a believer in a baptist church and not in the AG church, after all.

The hard truth remains, though, that while my friend would be eligible, many qualified Southern Baptists are not eligible under these new policies. This is a major concern for us. We must address it.
