Thank you so much for such a thoughtful response! I didn’t know about this SBC statement, that is fascinating color. Thank you for sharing that with me. I am fresh off of reading “Jesus and John Wayne” by Kristin Kobes Du Mez, have you read it? It was like drinking from a firehose on the topic you mentioned (Southern Baptists today forcing their religious views to fit with their political ideology). I probably didn’t absorb half of it and need to reread. Anyway, I can’t thank you enough for sharing this point and engaging with me on this topic!
