Southern Baptist and Expository Preaching

Preaching & Worship

“This is an insider’s view of the current ideological, theological, and political struggle that is convulsing the Southern Baptist community . . . . The expository preaching method as practiced by the SBC presupposes biblical inerrancy; together, they seem to have precipitated a haunting contradiction between fundamentalist Christian doctrine on one hand, and the constitutional and democratic requirement for racial and sexual equality . . . on the other. Cross rightly identifies the issue of biblical translation and interpretation as the core of the problem.”
