| 0:00.0 | We are live now on the Conversations That Matter Podcast. I hope everyone can hear me out there in Internet |
| 0:08.0 | Land. We have a good podcast for you today if you are a Southern Baptist because we're going to talk about the proposed |
| 0:13.8 | resolutions that are coming before the Southern Baptist Convention this |
| 0:17.5 | month that have been edited I don't know to what extent but by the |
| 0:22.2 | resolutions committee for the Southern Baptist Convention so these are resolutions that were |
| 0:27.8 | Submitted to the resolutions committee which they then edit and vet and then they submit back to the messenger body. |
| 0:34.9 | And resolutions are non-binding. |
| 0:37.0 | Many people emphasize this when a resolution gets passed that they don't like, that this doesn't |
| 0:41.7 | bind the churches, the churches are autonomous, they don't like that this doesn't bind the churches. |

| 1:26.4 | decade. So I'm going to talk about the resolutions that are being proposed and I'll tell you what I thought when I just briefly looked at the resolutions that there was not a for the first time in a while they didn't do a racial one and then I realized they actually kind of did but not the way that I was expecting them to approach it necessarily and so |
| 1:47.2 | We'll get to that I haven't actually read all of them. I've read a number of them and skim through some of them, but we're going to read them together and I'll give my thoughts and we have some folks joining us, some patrons as well as some other friends perhaps throughout the podcast who are going to join us and give their thoughts and their |
