The Southern Baptist Convention at the end of the twentieth century was characterized by growth in mission and excitement over theology. The growth in mission was represented in the evangelistic aspirations expressed in the Bold Mission Thrust adopted by the convention. The excitment over theology was recaptiulated in the report of the Peace Committee led by Charles G. Fuller and adopted by the convention.
