Here is a survey measuring support in the SBC for female pastors.
If you’re a Southern Baptist, take a few minutes, and fill it out.

@SamRainer I assumed where you stood on the issue, but I honestly can’t remember talking to you about it. I wouldn’t ask if I truly knew the answer. Again, not trying to be combative. Just sharing what I’m seeing.
@SamRainer But that’s not even the point. It’s perceived as swaying public opinion because 1) the timing of the study’s release seems strategic—right before the convention. 2) you’re not following up with your personal convictions. I’m not trying to come at you. I’m just my observations.
@SamRainer 81% in favor of women preaching doesn’t favor the conservative camp. Nor does 29% support for women pastors. Even though the latter is significantly lower, it’s still higher than what many believe is reality.
@SamRainer I think one reason your study is getting pushback is because it’s being perceived as trying to sway opinions to one side. If you made a clear statement on: can women be pastors and are they permitted to preach to and teach men?, it would be helpful.
@ErikReed I see the distinction you’re making. The call to work may not be cursed by sin but the people and materials are. I’m just not sure those things can be that easily parsed out. But I’m also not 100 percent sure.

“Behold, I send my messenger before your face,
who will prepare your way,

‘Prepare the way of the Lord,
make his paths straight,’”
