“The court filing which appears to have given rise to this online speculation is publicly available, and it does not mention NAMB by name,” the statement continued. “There is no way to factually conclude from that document what the plaintiff or any other employee was being paid by NAMB.”
“It is regrettable that some parties have drawn conclusions and spread them around the Internet. Unfortunately, none of these parties contacted NAMB first for confirmation or denial,” NAMB said. “At NAMB we are grateful for every dollar Southern Baptists have entrusted to us, and we strive to be the very best stewards of those resources.”
The statement concluded by directing readers to a page on NAMB’s website outlining its commitment to financial transparency.
