‘Southern Baptists without (many) baptisms’

Terry Mattingly:

SBC leaders would, if pressed, have trouble finding as many as 6 million of the nearly 16 million people whose names are on membership rolls in their churches. Why? Too often, churches have focused on mere “incantation evangelism” that expects people to recite a few “magic words” that prove they are Christians, said Rainer. That brand of faith is not enough.
