As the Southern Baptist Convention holds its Annual Meeting in Dallas, it is anticipated that efforts will be renewed to pass a constitutional amendment banning churches from calling women pastors of any kind, and that other issues affecting women will be raised including the SBC’s Sexual Abuse Prevention & Response efforts and resolutions related to women’s roles and bodies.
Dr. Beth Allison Barr will join Rev. Dr. Meredith Stone, BWIM’s Executive Director, to discuss the progression of these issues in the SBC and at the 2025 Annual Meeting, how they relate to the SBC’s past actions or inactions regarding women, and hopes they have for women in the SBC.
Dr. Barr is the New York Times Best-Selling Author of Becoming the Pastor’s Wife: How Marriage Replaced Ordination as a Women’s Path to Ministry (Brazos Press, 2025), USA Today Best-Selling Author of Making Biblical Womanhood: How the Subjugation of Women Became Gospel Truth (Brazos Press, 2021), and co-host of the acclaimed podcast, All the Buried Women.
