[...] Dr. Danny Akin prophetically, positively, and profoundly addressed the race issue in his signature message in chapel at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, concerning the Great Commission Resurgence. Rarely, do we hear of this type of statesmanship and leadership on this issue from anyone in SBC life. Much respect to you, Dr. Akin. I wish the GCR report to the annual meeting in Orlando would include Dr. Akin’s initial remarks on this subject. [...]

Dr. Akin,
I agree with 100% of the GCR but I think one reason for the decline of many SBC churches and the denomination collectively is 1) a diminishing passion for sharing Christ among the laity, and 2) a compounding of #1 because few churches have a PROCESS for making disciples. All due respect to the GCR, but the Great Commission has two sides (evangelism and teaching), and SBC leaders unwittingly assume that the process of teaching new Christians will somehow just happen. I believe discipled Christians are better evangelists. Read my more in depth article at: http://drthomreece.wordpress.com/2009/06/29/the-hole-in-the-great-commission-resurgence/
Blessings,

Tom
