History captured the Southern Baptist Convention today. We elected our first African-American President, Dr Fred Luter, Pastor at Franklin Ave Baptist Church in New Orleans.
I and many hundreds of others cried with joy. This is no small event for a denomination that was birthed on the wrong side of the slavery question.
I'm proud of my denomination. We have problems and weaknesses aplenty, but today for one brief moment we stood tall. Yay for Southern Baptists.
