Southern Baptist Convention

Last Updated on 2 weeks by Admin

The Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) is the largest Protestant and second-largest Christian denomination in the United States, with over 47,000 churches and 16 million members. It is also the world’s largest Baptist denomination.

The SBC was founded in 1845 in Augusta, Georgia, by white Baptists in the Southern United States who supported continuing the institution of slavery. The split from the northern Baptists (known today as the American Baptist Churches USA) occurred because the northern Baptists did not support funding slave-holding evangelists from the South.
