I’m mostly with Jim—currently encouraging my oldest daughter to attend an EFCA church at college because there are no good Baptist churches in the area—but I wonder if the SBC can do a lot to restore the usefulness of the “Baptist” name in this regard. If you do it right, it’s useful shorthand for a lot of truth—but if you do it wrong, it’s shorthand for a lot of nonsense.
In my perhaps not humble enough opinion, of course. :^)
