Baptist21 panel talks SBC history & future

The Conservative Resurgence within the Southern Baptist Convention in the 1980s and ’90s and its implications for the future of the convention was discussed at the Baptist21 luncheon June 19 in New Orleans where two key leaders of the movement — Paige Patterson and Paul Pressler — were honored. Another topic was Calvinism and the recent document “A Statement of the Traditional Southern Baptist Understanding of God’s Plan of Salvation.”
