Mega-churches have to fill their pews and cannot be particular with whom. And while mega-churches are a minority of actual congregations in the SBC, they are the bulk of the membership AND, sad to say, the source (and it seems the QUALIFICATION) for “SBC Leaders”.
Pastor Jack Graham endorses David Allen for SBC president
Who is Jack Graham? He heads Prestonwood Baptist Church in Plano, “with a membership of over 45,000 and a weekly attendance of around 17,000”.
David Allen? Allen became the first dean of the Southwest Baptist Theological Seminary’s School of Preaching in 2016, serving until 2022, when he became the leader of the Adrian Rogers Center for Biblical Preaching at Mid-America Baptist Theological Seminary in Memphis, Tennessee.
Yeah...and the SBC seminaries have been such paragon’s of good teaching and behavior the last 20 years...
Millions of em'.
