Fellow IMB M's,
You may have heard about the Time to Change initiative aimed at the candidate policies of the IMB. You can find it at IMBChange.info as well as the press release at sbcoutpost.com.
If you are in agreement and feel led to sign the 'Time to Change' statement, I would like to encourage you to do so.
The authors and moderators of IMBChange.info will confirm for accuracy and credibility but without divulging your name unless you specify. They are trustworthy, and precedent on the site is established for M's.
Additionally, I believe that much attention will be paid if there is heavy M signing. I believe this is your best opportunity to register your voice without censure or reprisal.
May the Lord encourage you today in your call and outreach...stay with it...we will continue to advocate for you.
Grateful for each of you,
Rodney Hammer

Blessings, Rodney.
Met with an M about our church's involvement in VSC work. Got your blog address from him. I look forward to seeing how The Master continues to use you and Debbie in His Kingdom work.

Benjie, thanks so much for encouragement and note. It was good to see you all in Indianapolis too!
Grateful for you, your ministry, your work in CEE, and your friendship.

Rodney,
I just stumbled across this today. I was one of those who wanted to serve in the CEE region. I was in process with the IMB for a while, trying to finish up my dissertation on the Hungarian Baptists before going. But my wife is a charismatic from Osijek, Croatia. We met while I was teaching at ETS. I learned in early 2006 that we no longer qualified for service. We have since left the SBC and are waiting for another door to open. Thanks for your brave stand. I hope the BOT listens... I have gone to the website to share my story.
