Cooperative Program giving is up

Baptist Press reported yesterday that CP was up nearly 1% compared to last year. The Cooperative Program may be one of the most difinitive inititatives of Southern Baptists. In fact, even with all its faults, it's arguable the most effective denominational ministry and missions funding strategy on the market.

It's easy to take a cheap shot at just about anything. And by no means would anyone say that the system is perfect. But CP allows Southern Baptists the ability to fully fund and sustain the ministry of Christ until his ultimate return. Now that's good stuff.
