This year marks the centennial anniversaries of the Cooperative Program’s creation, the adoption of the Baptist Faith & Message, and the SBC’s ownership of Southwestern Seminary. To celebrate these 100 years of Southern Baptist cooperation, Southwestern has compiled eleven essays from key Southern Baptist leaders and seminary faculty for an original series on the ETC blog. The entire series, which will publish over the course of eleven weeks, will be available here:
- “The One and Only: Cooperation as a Southern Baptist Distinctive,” by Jeff P. Iorg
- “Cooperation as a Theological Essential for Southern Baptists,” by W. Madison Grace II
- “Cooperation for Missions and Evangelism,” by Dean Sieberhagen & Carl Bradford
- “Cooperation in the Old Testament,” by Joshua Williams
- “Cooperation in the New Testament,” by Jim Wicker
- “What is the Cooperative Program?,” by Tony Wolfe
- “The Seventy-five Million Campaign and the Cooperative Program,” by Blake McKinney
- “Is Cooperation a New Testament Doctrine?,” by L.R. Scarborough
