If there has been one theme of #SBC21 it has been that the messengers WILL NOT accept business as usual from the @SBCExecComm and @ronniefloyd . We called for change. We have full confidence in @pastorrolland as he leads. Pray for him. Hopefully, there is help on the way.

The SBC and the @SBCExecComm needs to have light shined on its dark places. Too many things have been hidden, swept under the rug, and kept in the dark. If we are gonna keep asking for revival it must start with honesty, repentance, and letting the light shine in the corners.

On an EC which resisted progress on sexual abuse, where officers (previous) intentionally became obstacles to solutions, @JaredcWellman raised his voice. He took a lot of flak. He was called on the carpet. We owe him a debt of gratitude. He is a hero in all of this.

Those who claim that the SBC is becoming egalitarian have trouble arguing that after the ballots just announced. A nationally known, powerful man like Rick Warren was voted out by nearly 90% of messengers. We are complementarian. Those who say otherwise need to stop.

What is new is the growth of self-appointed theological police within the SBC who are not content unless every church conforms to their interpretation on pretty much every controversial theological, political, or social issue.

Dr. Willy Rice is nominating Mike Stone, focusing on apostasy and idolatry - all that is wrong with the SBC. Willy is defining Mike's candidacy as in opposition to dealing with sexual abuse. It was an angry, negative speech.

This thread helps explain why @toddbenkert ’s motion being referred to the @ERLC was not a defeat, but actually what was intended. #SBC21 Attention then turned to the Gaines/Parrot motion, which Todd rescued – calling messengers to bring it to the floor.

God has broken my heart for abuse survivors since early in my 20s. Starting with a young woman who was a younger classmate of my wife, I saw first-hand the devastating long-term impact of sexual abuse.

From my vantage point, it looked like around 20 or so people voted against the ARITF report. The messengers have spoken clearly, multiple times, that we want substantive, effective sexual abuse reform in the SBC.
