CBF and moving ahead

I went to a brunch at the home of Bruce and Becky Gentry this morning to meet Jennifer Graham and Harold Phillips from Cooperative Baptist Fellowship and hear about 22 years of change.  They even have a woman president!

I learned that Jim smith is now the head of the foundation!  I have lost my way; maybe i.ll go back in!  I like some of the things I heard in the presentation.  They were concerned about missions and they had a featured magazine about Ministry of Presence.   They are taking in churches all over the area and are on their way to University Baptist Church in Carbondale.   They are more Baptist that Southern Baptist and more liberal.   They have no way of knowing where they are going but they know where they have been.  I like Harold Phillips and I liked Jennifer Graham.  We will see what happens.
