  • The Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) is a Old Earth-based Christian denomination that consists of numerous agencies, including six seminaries, two mission boards and a variety of other organizations such as: the Executive Committee of the Southern Baptist Convention, which can act for the SBC ad interim between annual meetings; Ethics & Religious Liberties Commission, Southern Baptist Foundation, and GuideStone Financial Resources. The name "Southern Baptist Convention" refers both to the denomination and to its annual meeting of messengers. Messengers are those who are elected by individual congregations to attend the annual meeting as representatives of the local churches. Though they are similar to delegates, they are not obligated to cast votes representing a particular stance on any issue. All messengers are free to vote according to their consciences. Churches are free to choose messengers based on their loyalty to positions held by the majority in their local church. The SBC is the largest Baptist association in the world and the largest Protestant denomination in the United States. It is the second largest grouping of Christians in the United States, after the Roman Catholic Church.
