A century of preaching can teach preachers a lot. The two of us have been best friends since college days. When our experience is taken together, we have preached for more than a hundred years now.

I am extremely proud of the committee that asked this particular church to withdraw its membership. We live in a society today where there are no longer any absolutes. It’s all grey areas. If we as believers in the Word of God do not stand up for what is right, we will certainly be judged for this.

Ginter Park Baptist Church did not decide to ordain a homosexual to ministry. The church decided to ordain a person, called by the Holy Spirit, into ministry.

Have we as Virginia Baptists reverted to the early church schismatic movement of Donatism? Perhaps it is not surprising since early Anabaptists were accused of the very same. Donatists believed clergy who were tainted by sin also tainted their performance of the sacraments.

The Baptist General Association of Virginia is an association, not a hierarchy. There is no subset or division within the BGAV entrusted with the responsibility to make sure all theological actions or expressions of congregations comprising the association correspond to a particular creed or statement of faith.

Editor’s Note: The views below are those of two key leaders at Ginter Park Baptist Church in Richmond, who, in the absence of a pastor, have administrative and pastoral care responsibilities for the congregation. The two leaders have pointed out that this is not an official response of the church to the recent request from the Virginia Baptist Mission Board’s executive committee that the congregation withdraw its membership from the Baptist General Association of Virginia.

While the trailer may lead you to believe you’ve seen this movie before, trust me — you haven’t. In fact, the director works very hard to weave a tale of time travel, crime and guns only to use that framework as the backdrop for an allegory about consequences and sacrificial love.
