  • Letters: Standard’s 125th anniversay

    01/10/2014 - By Staff / Baptist Standard

  • Letters: New definition of ‘bivocational’

    01/03/2014 - By Staff / Baptist Standard

  • Letters: Secular companies have more integrity than LifeWay

    12/18/2013 - By Staff / Baptist Standard

    We will never step foot in a Lifeway store again. Most secular companies would have had more integrity.

  • Letters: Just the facts on Glorieta

    12/16/2013 - By Staff / Baptist Standard

    I would like to know two things: Whether the sale of homes in 2011 and assurance that Glorieta would continue can be proven; and whether proof exists that Glorieta has lost money for the last 20 years.

  • Letters: More on Race in sentencing

    12/05/2013 - By Staff / Baptist Standard

  • Letters: Lifting up the poor

    11/18/2013

    Jesus does not force his followers to do anything, but Jesus desires our minds and hearts be attuned to lifting up the poor.

  • Letters: Tax-exempt status

    11/07/2013 - By Staff / Baptist Standard

    When churches complain about their inability to engage in politicking, they are only complaining about the cost of the tax-free status they have freely chosen to accept.

  • Letters: Editorial independence

    11/01/2013 - By Staff / Baptist Standard

    It is a bad day when Christian news has to be controlled by powers of the church fathers.

    10/25/2013 - By Staff / Baptist Standard

    I see a lot of problems with background checks.
