To place church autonomy above allegiance to the clear teachings and mandates of God’s Holy Word is both non-Christian and certainly, given our history as Baptists, non-Baptist.

I wish to commend your congregation for their support of Scott McGuire in his call to ministry and I admire your courage — and his, of course — in making your decision “public” within the broader Baptist community.

Some have unfairly criticized me and the Baptist Joint Committee for not vigorously opposing what are considered to be religious liberty violations in connection with the implementation of the Obama administration’s new health care law. Let me set the record straight.

There is a huge difference between partnership and membership. Partnership comes from shared goals. Membership comes from shared identity, shared core. At times, membership must be superintended by an association in order to protect the integrity of the core. Otherwise, the mission will suffer.

A minority of our congregations produce a majority of our clergy. What is it about the culture of those churches that encourages a call to ministry among their members? How do they create a “culture of call” that invites parishoners to consider deeply the possibiity that God may be leading them into vocational ministry?

Have you noticed that some people join your church and eventually become leaders while others join and eventually drop out? It is easy to assume that people in the latter group just weren’t that interested in spiritual things. Perhaps this is true in some cases, but usually people “drop out” because they were never really “let in.”

The world has changed, and it’s not coming back. Not now, not ever. I’m not saying all changes are good, but there is much good that God is doing. If we fail to partner with God in this great work here and now, and if we only see the bad, if we cower in fear and hide from reality, then what’s left to offer our children?
