Pastor Mike Stone:
🔸is a pastor with years of pastoral leadership experience and a heart for shepherding a local church. The local church is the headquarters of the Southern Baptist Convention.
🔸 supports without hesitation the sufficiency of Scripture. His commitment to the BF&M 2000 & the implementation of this important document in Southern Baptist life will give us confidence & clarity to stand boldly for the Word of God in an increasingly anti-Christian culture.
🔸holds that the Bible is the only analytical tool he needs, leading him to reject unbiblical ideologies such as Critical Race Theory, presented to SBC Annual Meeting messengers in 2019 as a beneficial analytical tool via Resolution 9.
🔸 is a pastor consumed with a passion to lead his church and our denomination with an unwavering commitment to evangelism.
🔸 has years of experience serving Southern Baptists on the state and national level. From these positions of denominational leadership, Pastor Mike Stone has shown time and time again the wisdom, skill, and convictions that have strengthened Southern Baptists in their mission.
🔸 understands the value of a trustee system that helps to serve Southern Baptists with transparency, efficiency, and accountability.
🔸 desires to develop and encourage stronger commitment to the Cooperative Program among the churches of the Southern Baptist Convention.
🔸 knows the value of relationships. He has an incredible testimony of developing relationships across the Southern Baptist Convention with those from different backgrounds, ethnicities, and experiences in order that our churches would continue to reach people around the world.
For these reasons and many more the Conservative Baptist Network strongly believes Pastor Mike Stone is the man that God has raised up to be the next president of the Southern Baptist Convention.
