NAMB

A motion regarding the North American Mission Board’s ministry assignments dominated the SBC Executive Committee’s report of its recommendations during the June 15 morning session of the SBC annual meeting.

Johnny Hunt has stepped down as NAMB Senior VP of Evangelism and Leadership amid a report that he sexually assaulted the wife of an SBC pastor 20 years his junior in 2010. He denies the allegations are true.

With the North American Mission Board seeking to add the collegiate ministry assignment as part of its mission, both NAMB and Lifeway Christian Resources are working toward providing resources for college ministry.

An uproar on social media occurred in response to a church planter training video, which seemed to imply that southern church planters should lose their regional accents to appear more intelligent.

Dhati Lewis, president of the North American Mission Board’s (NAMB) church planting arm, Send Network, will transition from his position to launch a new initiative to empower discipleship in majority-minority, multiethnic communities.

The Southern Baptist Convention's North American Mission Board released a statement last Thursday, October 14, 2021, clarifying their stance on women in church leadership at NAMB endorsed church plants.

SBC pastors are questioning why NAMB is funding church plants who have female pastors on staff.
