Southern Baptists concerned about having a Russell Moore clone forced down their throat as the next President of the Southern Baptist Convention now have an option. Former pastor, former seminary president and former Wake Forest football player Ken Hemphill will be nominated for SBC president at the annual meeting in Dallas.
You can read the official nomination report from The Baptist Message. Endorsements include Dr. Richard Land, conservative apologist and radio host Alex McFarland, and Hemphill earned praise from Pastor of Fairhope Baptist Church Eric Hankins.
Hemphill told The Baptist Message, “I am Southern Baptist by birth and by conviction… I agree with our theology, our ecclesiology, our missiology and our polity.
