Tom Messer, who reportedly helped cover-up the child sex crimes of his church’s founding pastor, is listed as a featured speaker for the Florida Baptist Convention. Even though his is not an SBC church.
Christa reminds us that Bob Allenwrote for Ethics Daily:
A TV station in Jacksonville, Fla., reports that leaders in a prominent Baptist church in the city knew for years their former pastor was a pedophile, but covered it up for fear public knowledge would harm the church's ministry, shipping the minister to Germany where he served 10 years as a missionary, possibly with access to other children.
. . .
The Baptist Mission for Forgotten People, where Gray finished his ministry as a missionary, wasn't told anything about his background for 10 years and did not find out until Gray was arrested, a spokesperson told reporter Jeannie Blaylock.
There was even news of a smoking gun tape recording. Really. Decide for yourself what it means.
Messer's Monday morning session topic: "Transition: Leading the Church to Adapt for Greater Effectiveness."
