The Gathering of the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship of North Carolina
Bringing Baptists of North Carolina Together for Christ-Centered Ministry Volume 12, Issue 1
February 2007
Four Fragile Freedoms by Larry Hovis Why was the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship movement started in Atlanta over fifteen years ago? Because “moderates” were tired of losing elections at the SBC? Because “free and faithful” Baptists wanted to develop a new way of supporting missions around the world? Because those same Baptists saw the need to support new avenues to produce the kind of theological education we valued and to which we were accustomed? Because we needed ways to connect and support one another in the face of losing our place in the denominational family we held so dear? CBF was started for all of these reasons and more. But the common denominator at the base of all these reasons can be summed up in two words: Baptist Principles. The Baptists who started CBF shared a common understanding of what it means to be a Baptist Christian, and they believed that the only way to preserve these principles for themselves, for their children, for the larger Christian Church, and for the world, was to start a new network of Baptist Christians, churches, schools and ministry agencies that we now call Cooperative Baptist Fellowship. Continued on page 7.
Just what are these Baptist Principles that Cooperative Baptists hold so dear? They can be articulated in several ways, but no one has done it better than Baptist historian Walter Shurden in his book The Baptist Identity: Four Fragile Freedoms:

Fire Damages Greenville Church Around 10:30 p.m. Saturday night, January 13, arsonists set a fire at The Memorial Baptist Church in Greenville which caused extensive damage to the church’s buildings. Randy McKinney is the current pastor of The Memorial. Larry Hovis was pastor of the church before becoming CBFNC Coordinator in October 2004. Unity Freewill Baptist Church was also burned but sustained far less damage than Memorial. Also, nearby Oakmont Baptist Church (Greg Rogers, pastor) was broken into. The 2004 CBFNC General Assembly was held at Oakmont, with the Friday night fellowship dinner served at The Memorial. No part of the church’s buildings are usable at this time. Sunday services are being held on Sunday afternoons in various churches. Wednesday night activities are being hosted by First Christian Church. The church’s large weekday early education program has
been relocated to Immanuel Baptist Church and St. Timothy’s Episcopal Church, and the church offices are being housed at Oakmont. CBFNC has established a special fund to assist Memorial in their rebuilding. Financial contributions may be made payable to CBFNC and mailed to CBFNC, 8025 North Point Blvd., Suite 205, Winston-Salem, NC 27106. Please write “The Memorial Baptist Church” in the memo portion on your check. For updates on the situation at The Memorial, visit the church’s website, www.tmbc.org. The prayers of the CBFNC family are extended to these congregations, especially The Memorial, which suffered the greatest damage. Pastor Randy McKinney says that while the congregation is mourning damage to its buildings, it has quickly developed plans to continue its ministry, and they are grateful for the prayers of sister congregations.

“Each year at the CBF National General Assembly we are inspired: to hear speakers, missionaries and others as they share faith experiences and their work around the world. It restores our commitment to missions, education and service as we learn how our resources are used and how we are a part of something greater than ourselves. The meaningful time spent in prayer, meditation and song provide an excellent experience for worship. We also meet new friends, renew friendships and strengthen our own mission journey. We hope each of you will consider the opportunity to attend the CBF General Assembly. What better place than Washington, DC, to visit, have our meeting and share our common faith and journey together?“ - Laypersons from Winston-Salem, David and Mavis Bissette

Family Photos by Rick Jordan, Church Resources Coordinator Our family has a tradition that began by accident. One Easter Sunday, my extended family went to my parents’ house in Hickory. We hid eggs to hunt (plastic ones Rick Jordan with M&Ms or coins in them), ate a big meal and made ice cream. My father had an old red and white pickup truck. The cousins (my children and those of my brother and my sister) climbed into the bed of that truck with their ice cream cones. I found my camera and snapped a picture. Weeks later, when I opened the fat envelope full of pictures, I was not disappointed. (This was many years ago, before digital cameras, when you had to send your “film” off to be “developed.” It was always an exciting time to open the envelope several weeks later to discover if you were successful in your attempts at picture taking.) There they were, cute as could be, eating their ice cream in the back of my dad’s pick-up. The picture did indeed capture the moment. That Christmas, we took another picture, again in the bed of the truck. And we’ve done that type of picture now for a dozen years, every time all the cousins get together. My parents have since sold the truck and bought a van – which is fine because the “kids” had outgrown standing in the truck bed. Now, they line up beside the van, from oldest to youngest, from college sophomore to seventh grader. This month, I’ve been digging through my boxes and boxes of photographs, trying
to gather all of the “cousins” pictures. I wanted to find them all to put into frames or albums as a gift to my parents, for whom these “cousins” are, of course, grandchildren. It is an interesting feeling, studying these pictures. These children have grown so much in the past decade. The seven year old in this photograph is now the nineteen year old in another photograph. So much has happened, so much has changed. The cousins/grandchildren are the same people, but they do not look the same and they do not act the same. They are growing, maturing. They are in (or soon facing) the throes of adolescence, with all of its growth spurts, introspections and identity explorations. And, it makes you wonder what things will look like in the photograph ten years from now. That is exciting (and somewhat scary) to ponder. Do you know how old CBFNC is? Our first official gathering was in March 1994. At twelve years old (“going on thirteen”), we have signs of adolescence ourselves. We are the same people with the same convictions that birthed our movement, but when you line up twelve years worth of snapshots, my, how we’ve changed. And now, we face growth spurts in events, finances and public support. We find ourselves reflecting on our identity. We ponder our purpose and our mission. On the surface appearance, things look like they’ve changed a lot, too, with a new logo, our newsletter’s makeover and a powerful new web site. Ah, adolescence! What will we become? It’s exciting (and somewhat scary) to ponder.
The “Cousins” Picture
Four Fragile Freedoms, by Larry Hovis, Coordinator, Continued from page 1 “Bible Freedom is the historic Baptist affirmation that the Bible, under the Lordship of Christ, must be central in the life of the church and individual and that Christians, with the best Larry Hovis and most scholarly tools of inquiry, are both free and obligated to study and obey the Scripture. Soul Freedom is the historic affirmation of the inalienable right and responsibility of every person to deal with God without the imposition of creed, the interference of clergy, or the intervention of civil government. Church Freedom is the historic Baptist affirmation that local churches are free, under the Lordship of Christ, to determine their membership and leadership, to order their worship and work, to ordain whom they perceive as gifted for ministry, male or female, and to participate in the larger Body of Christ, of whose unity and mission
Baptists are proudly a part. Religious Freedom is the historic Baptist affirmation of freedom OF religion, freedom FOR religion, and freedom FROM religion, insisting that Caesar is not Christ and Christ is not Caesar.” (Walter Shurden, The Baptist Identity: Four Fragile Freedoms, 1993) George Santayana observed that those who forget their history are doomed to repeat it. In CBFNC, we desire to move beyond the hurt of the past into the bright, healthy future God has in store for us. But it will be a future built on the solid foundation of Baptist principles that our early Baptist ancestors struggled and suffered for, and our CBF pioneers were unwilling to forget. In the nine remaining issues of the 2007 volume of The Gathering, we will be highlighting these vital Baptist freedoms, through both opinion articles and by showing the connection between these freedoms and the ongoing ministries of the CBF movement, especially in North
Carolina. If you would like to submit an article about these freedoms, or some aspect of Baptist principles, please email your ideas to naho@cbfnc.org.
“The Baptists who started CBF shared an understanding of what it means to be a Baptist Christian and believed the only way to preserve their principles for themselves, their children, the larger Christian Church, and the world was to start a new network that we now call Cooperative Baptist Fellowship.”
CBF’s Church Benefits Board: An Alternative for Ministers’ Benefits, by Sue H. Poss It seems more and more North Carolina churches are looking at various alternative providers for their employees’ benefits packages. One option is the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship’s Church Benefits Board (CBB). CBB offers the same type of services, including retirement benefits and various insurance, that most churches have traditionally received through other sources. “Churches as employers typically provide some level of employee benefits like retirement, life insurance coverage, disability benefits and medical coverage to various staff members,” said Gary Skeen, director of the Church Benefits Board for CBF in Atlanta. “They have historically looked to their particular faith group leadership to help them provide benefits to staff members.” But North Carolina CBF Coordinator Larry Hovis said that is changing. “Some churches are having to make hard decisions
about their relationship with the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina, which is the portal through which they access benefits,” he said. “Many of them are looking for new ways to get their benefits and we want them to know that the Church Benefits Board is available.” Hovis said he frequently refers churches to Skeen for detailed information about what CBB offers. “Baptist churches in North Carolina have both the privilege and responsibility of providing benefits for the staff,” Hovis said. “We are blessed by the Church Benefits Board which can not only provide these needed services but can also advise church leaders on navigating these important but difficult waters.” “Ministers’ benefits packages help provide a secure environment for ministry and church-sponsored plans provide a tax advantage to ministers,” Skeen said. “As churches begin to review relationships with related state and regional affiliations,
caring for staff through employee benefits quickly become a point of concern.” Skeen said CBB offers high quality options for staff benefits. “Many churches also have local and regional commercial options for benefits providers, and CBF through its CBB staff is ready to help churches evaluate their best options for employee benefits and explore alternatives,” he said. Skeen said some churches have not evaluated their benefits plans or funding levels in many years. So looking at alternative plans can be a healthy process for both the church and the staff. CBB staff can help church leadership evaluate coverage levels and cost factors, integrate benefits coverage, and provide education for leadership and staff. For more information, contact Gary Skeen at (800) 352-8741 or visit www. thefellowship.info/CBB.
