Thank you, Brian, for articulating something I witnessed (1979 was the year I got call to preach) and came to recognize as something sinister. Voices raising the alarm in the SBC were pushed out removing any counter-balance to the worst influences in the denomination. National politics over the last eight to 10 years has had a familiar look, a similar sour taste. Turns out the fundamentalist SBC has been a part of that coalition and looks like it even helped perfect the Machiavellian practices of what used to be the "Grand Old Party."

Thanks for reading! Unfortunately, your ministry timeline has lined up with these shifts.
