The app for independent voices

Just so you are aware, the Southern Baptist Convention has very deep tentacles embedded in the fabric of our country. I would not call them community churches. They are hotbeds of intolerance and bigotry. Long was a member of an SBC church which promoted far right leaning beliefs, politically, socially and personally.

Congregations. 47,530 (2019) Members. 14,525,579 (2019) Weekly attendance = 5,250,230[1]

A look at the list of politicians who are SBC is informative, it will give you a sense of how and why our politics of intolerance is thriving. The body that supports the abuse you cite is very powerful and influential in every aspect of ALL of OUR lives, not just the lives of adherents. It has derailed and continues to derail the entire nation.
