We need two workers at the Southern Baptist Convention Annual Meeting in Indianapolis, Indiana to assist the LifeWay Research team. We are looking for two energetic seminary students to work (for pay) Monday and Tuesday, June 9 and 10. One would work the hours of 9-5 and one is needed the hours of 10-8. Email research@lifeway.com for directions how to proceed if interested. You must be SBC and cannot have been anywhere near anything sinful in the last 6 months.

because if my sin is seven months old it doesn't count? :-)

Wow, not being anywhere or around anything sinful in the previous six months (?) I guess no one will be assisting Lifeway this year :)

I have an SBC(global.net) email address, I wonder if that qualifies me as "SBC"?

So I suppose Jesus is the only one who can apply for this job right?

Seriously guys- this advert has been live for over 24 hours as I write this. It's ridiculous and someone there surely must know that. If not, oh my... things really have turned sour over in Nashville.

Hmmm... I better clarify that the last part was a joke. Sinners are welcome to apply.

Jim,
I have been busy lecturing all day at New Orleans Seminary and, while I was gone, it seems you missed the humor in my ad.
For the rest of you, see here and here.
Jim, I dropped by your blog and wrote,
As I said, if you are going to comment on the blog, particuly with such strong words, let me suggest you poke around and see the sense of humor first. And, for that matter, it might be nice to lighten up and have a little fun... I do.
Of course, it could be a "you gotta' be SBC to get the joke," but I am guessing it might be birthed from your view of LifeWay.
Perhaps that view changed a bit today.
I hope so.
We are nice people... really. And, I think it is funny that some people are legalists. So, we poke fun at ourselves.
Come back again any time.
Ed

I, for one, thought it was HYSTERICAL.
BTW, LOVED your sermon Sunday.

Ed, who woulda thought the ad would get such reaction? I guess even younger SBC folk as are serious as our recent forefathers and mothers.
They obviously don't know you.
