Jury Holds Baptist State Convention Liable for Pastor’s Sexual Abuse

[RWGR]

A Florida jury found the state chapter of the Southern Baptist Convention liable for the actions of a former pastor currently serving time for the sexual abuse of a 13-year-old boy.

The Lake County jury found that the convention failed to do an adequate background check on Douglas W. Myers, who was recruited to start two churches in the county. Myers pleaded guilty in 2007 to molesting the boy; he is currently in the midst of a seven-year prison sentence.

Good for them. These checks need to be done very carefully.

And notice the report is not from the secular media, but from a well-respected evangelical magazine.

That means we recognize problems, and deal with them, while warning our brothers to be more careful.
