Some troubling numbers from the Southern Baptist Convention

VERBATIM: According to Life Way Research, 43% of SBC churches performed NO baptisms in 2022 — the last year for which all the data is in. Another 34% reported performing between one and five baptisms. Overall SBC baptisms nationwide are down, but they have rebounded substantially from the sharp decline that was seen during the pandemic. In fact, baptism in the denomination has been declining since 1999. Michael Harrington, SRN News.
