Here is a survey measuring support in the SBC for female pastors.
If you’re a Southern Baptist, take a few minutes, and fill it out.

Mark 1:2-3
[2] As it is written in Isaiah the prophet,
“Behold, I send my messenger before your face,
who will prepare your way,
[3] the voice of one crying in the wilderness:
‘Prepare the way of the Lord,
make his paths straight,’”

Why would anyone care about dying churches? Some say just let them die and start new ones. Ben Depolitte shares how God changed his heart on this matter. Check out his article. replantnetwork.com/articles/…
This is the work we hope to accomplish with the @ReplantNetwork. Check out this article by one of our elders, Keith Jackson. He tells the story of unity between two churches in our replant. replantnetwork.com/articles/…
Check out The Replant Network Podcast. We tell the story of how God worked to replant what is now Christ's Fellowship. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…
The Replant Network is set to launch in January of 2026. We exist to equip churches to replant dying and declining congregations by resourcing and coaching church leaders to do the work of replanting.

I believe every church be involved in replanting, either as a replanting church or as a church that needs replanted.
If you'd like to see some short videos on why replanting, jump on the email list from the @ReplantNetwork website.

So excited to join @ErikReed in starting this network. Check it out and get involved.
Go follow @ReplantNetwork and visit our website to learn more about what we’re up to.
Every church should be involved in replanting either as a replanting church or a church that needs to be replanted.

How do you know if a declining or dying church is truly ready and willing to be revitalized?
This is an important question.
What I have observed over the years in working with struggling churches is that the remaining leaders and influencers must share at least these 5 things:
1. Hearts that are humble. – “This is the Lord’s church not ours.”
2. Desire to reach the community with the Gospel. – “This is our mission and mission field.”
3. Commitment to submit to the Bible. – “The Word of God is our authority.”
4. Willingness to take risks and do whatever it takes. – “We are desperate to see God move here.”
5. Belief that God can actually revitalize dying churches. – “God isn’t done with us.”

“We didn’t realize what we didn’t have.” These words were spoken by one of our legacy members (member of the church before it was replanted). She was referring to the countless blessings she’s received as a result of her church’s sacrifice to be replanted. We need to replant more dying churches.
