Quote of the Day: Southern Baptist Convention President Fred Luter

“While we are arguing about these topics lost men, women, boys and girls are dying and going to hell every single day. … We have lost folk who are burning in a lake of fire, and while many of us are debating about which hose to pick up to put the fire out.”

– Southern Baptist Convention President Fred Luter, in a sermon Tuesday (June 11)  at the SBC’s annual meeting in Houston.

No paywalls here. Thanks to you.
As an independent nonprofit, RNS believes everyone should have access to coverage of religion that is fair, thoughtful and inclusive. That's why you will never hit a paywall on our site; you can read all the stories and columns you want, free of charge (and we hope you read a lot of them!)

But, of course, producing this journalism carries a high cost, to support the reporters, editors, columnists, and the behind-the-scenes staff that keep this site up and running. That's why we ask that if you can, you consider becoming one of our donors. Any amount helps, and because we're a nonprofit, all of it goes to support our mission: To produce thoughtful, factual coverage of religion that helps you better understand the world. Thank you for reading and supporting RNS.
