As part of our Across State Lines emphasis, New England Baptist partnered with the ERLC'S Psalm 139 Project to donate an ultrasound machine to Aspire Now Pregnancy Care Center in Vermont, a pro-choice state. On today's episode, you'll hear from Terry Dorsett, executive director of the Baptist Churches of New England, about the unique challenges facing New England Baptists, particularly when it comes to advocating for pre-born lives. He also discusses how cooperation with other state conventions like Tennessee and Alabama, fellow SBC entities, and local churches makes pro-life ministry possible in a region that is largely abortion permissive.New England Baptists face other ministry obstacles and opportunities as well, including family issues, pornography and gambling. Even with these challenges, there are encouraging signs of growth. According to Lifeway Research, New England is the only region in the SBC that has grown over the past five years. Terry has served in New England since 1994, first as a pastor, then a church planner, a director of missions, and finally a church planting catalyst before becoming the executive director of the Baptist Churches of New England in 2015.

Following Christ isn't about pretending everything is okay; it's about learning to trust God's promises even when we can't see what He is doing. In his message, “The Dawn of God's Faithfulness,” Pastor Josiah walks us through Luke 1:39–80 and shows how God breaks 400 years of silence with the births of John the Baptist and Jesus. We watch Mary and Zechariah move from confusion and waiting to Spirit-filled praise as they realize God is fulfilling the promises He made to Abraham and David. Along the way, we connect their story to ours: what it feels like when life is barren, when prayers seem unanswered, when God feels distant. Because God has already kept His biggest promise in Jesus, we can trust Him in the darkest moments of our lives and worship Him even when life seems hopeless.

In his sermon, “A Tale of Two Mothers,” Pastor Alex reminded us that despite the difficulties we face is this life, we can trust that God is always faithful to keep His promises. Since God the Father was faithful to keep the most amazing promise he's ever made, sending his only son, Jesus Christ to rescue us from our sins, then we can rest assured that the Lord will always care for those who belong to Him and are called by His name.

What holds you back from boldly sharing the gospel—fear, shame, or something else? In this week's message, we follow the Apostle Paul as he stands before King Agrippa and Governor Festus, not to defend his innocence, but to boldly proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ. God's word challenges us to see that, like Paul, we too are commissioned by Christ—not just saved from darkness but sent into a dark world with the light of the gospel. We are empowered by the Holy Spirit to speak with boldness, even when mocked or misunderstood. And we are called to long for the salvation of others with the same burning desire Paul displayed, regardless of the cost.

When accusations or misunderstandings come against your faith, what does it look like to give a Christ-centered defense rather than a self-defensive reaction? In his sermon: “Clear Eyes, Full Hearts, Can't Lose!” centered on Acts 24:1 – 25:12, Pastor Josiah walks us into the Roman courtroom of Caesarea, where the apostle Paul stands accused before Governor Felix. Surrounded by power, politics, and hostility, Paul defends himself not with manipulation but with conviction—his worship is to the Lord, his hope is anchored in the resurrection, and his conscience is clear before God and man. This passage reveals that the gospel itself, not merely Paul, is on trial—and that even in chains, God's mission is unstoppable.As Christ's chosen people, we are called to live with integrity and to boldly defend His truth before all. When our eyes are fixed on Christ and our hearts are full of love for Him, we truly can't lose—because even through persecution and hardship, the gospel advances, God's purposes prevail, and His truth cannot be silenced.

Alongside SBC 2025 at CBL's "For the Faithful Majority" Conference, Dusty Deevers, Chase Davis, Brent Money, and Dr. Scott Colter sit down to discuss "Baptists with Backbone in the Public Square." Panelists emphasize Christ's sovereignty over all areas of life, including politics, and criticize the church's historical passivity. The speakers call for Christians to be bold, active, and unapologetic in addressing issues like abortion, transgender ideology, and school curricula. They argue that Southern Baptists should mobilize, vote, and run for office to influence culture and politics. The panel highlights the need for pastors to preach truth and for Christians to see their faith as applicable to every sphere of life. –––––– Follow Center for Baptist Leadership across Social Media: X / Twitter – https://twitter.com/BaptistLeaders Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/people/Center-For-Baptist-Leadership/61556762144277/ Rumble – https://rumble.com/c/c-6157089 YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@CenterforBaptistLeadership Website – https://centerforbaptistleadership.org/ To book William for media appearances or speaking engagements, please contact him at media@centerforbaptistleadership.org.
