One of the ways the Kentucky Baptist Convention works with churches in fulfilling the Great Commission here in our state is by taking a coordinating role in major evangelism initiatives. Right now, for instance, the KBC is preparing – in partnership with Kentucky associations and the North American Mission Board – for a major evangelistic effort in [...]

As we think about how Southern Baptists financially support various missions and ministry endeavors on a state, national and international basis, our thoughts immediately go to the Cooperative Program. And rightly so. The Cooperative Program is the single biggest funding source in Baptist life, with many Baptist entities depending on it for at least a portion of [...]

I’ll pick up with the detail about Kentucky’s Cooperative Program allocations in the next post but since I know all of the readers of this blog aren’t necessarily from Kentucky, I thought I would drop in here a short video about the convention and the various agencies and institutions that receive CP funds.

Kentucky CP Giving — Part of the Story
July 14th, 2009 · No Comments · All Posts, Cooperative Program, International missions, Kentucky Baptist Convention, Kentucky missions, North American missions, Series - Kentucky CP Giving
One of the big questions being asked in relation to the Great Commission Resurgence is “How much money is staying within any given state convention versus how much is being sent on to Southern Baptist Convention causes?” We live in a very lost world and Southern Baptists are legitimately wanting to make sure their missions dollars [...]
