In the past five years, 1,075,515 people have been baptized in Southern Baptist churches.
One million testimonies.
One million families changed.
Yes, we face challenges, and we are honest about that. But on the one number that matters most, God is moving. | #SBC26
Yes! This is our “One sacred effort!” No org. is perfect. But when people judge the whole by the small percentage of problems while overlooking the vast amount of faithful gospel work being done, it often reveals a heart looking to complain not give thanks!
The spitting was disgusting. Should kick him off the team.
But it’s not why they lost. They lost, yet again, because they’re so hopeless on offense. Scheme, game plan, play-calling.
Why they lost this game. And ultimately why he will lose his job.
Cheers.
We all feel anxiety about the state of the world these days. Some simple practices we can focus on:
-log off and pray more than usual
-meditate on the unchanging truths of the gospel
-resolve in advance to stand with Christ and for goodness when tested
2024 marked the fourth year in a row that we saw an increase in baptisms!
God is honoring what each of you is so faithfully doing... sharing the gospel every day, and we are grateful.

The Cooperative Program has been a defining part of SBC life for 100 years!
Since 1925, Southern Baptists have given $20 billion to the Cooperative Program.
For 100 years, local SBC churches have faithfully given to the Gospel going forth to every corner of the world! #SBC25
SBC Entities, State Execs, and other leaders are joining SBC EC President/CEO @Jeff_Iorg on stage to celebrate the Cooperative Program. #SBC25
“We build this memorial so we can challenge our children and grandchildren to resist the temptation to go it alone.” - Dr. Jeff Iorg

End of list.
Here's a cool sports story...
Luke Combs grew up in North Carolina as a Panthers fan, so after Hurricane Helene, he organized a charity concert at Bank of America Stadium to raise money.
But rather than charging Combs the standard rate, Panthers owner David Tepper donated everything.
Tepper let Combs use the venue for free. He didn't keep any of the parking, merchandise, food, or beer money. He also paid the salaries of all the employees who worked the event and even covered 100% of the tax bill.
The result?
It was the largest concert in stadium history, with over 82,000 people showing up to donate $25 million.
And since Tepper paid for everything, every single dollar that was raised went to hurricane victims.
That's incredible 👏
