I sing in the church choir.
Me too! What church do you belong to? I sing with the SBC, or Southern Baptist Convention! We're a Christian denomination based in the US!
I've never heard of that. How many members are a part of the Southern Baptist Convention?
We have more than 15 million members! We're the second largest Christian denomination in the US behind the Catholic Church.
What makes them different from other congregations?
Well, we're pretty much just like any other Baptist organization. We only adopted the word Southern in our name over the issue of slavery. We split with the northern Baptists over the issue of whether slave owners could serve as missionaries.
Are members of the Southern Baptist Convention primarily Caucasian?
We're a very diverse group, but most of the African American members of our congregation joined new organizations like the African Methodist Episcopal Church.
