MO Baptist Conv 2009

This year's convention is over. I feel it was the best in recent
memory. Having long traversed troubled waters, it was good to hear MO
Baptists laughing again.


The preaching and singing were superb. The high water mark was the
installation of Dr. David Tolliver as our new Executive Director. His
sermon was powerful, as was Dr. Bruce McCoy's President's address.


All four convention officers were reelected. I think this is a plus
for Missouri Baptists. It provides good stability for our convention.


The lawsuit issue was referred to the Executive Board. I think this
is wise. It gives authority to the group that is privy to all
information about the lawsuits. Pray for wisdom.
