It's good to know that the trustees are concerned about this as well. I especially appreciate <a href="http://brotherbobsblog.blogspot.com/2006/03/namb-takes-action.html" rel="nofollow">your comments</a> on <a href="http://brotherbobsblog.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">your own blog</a>. I honestly do hope and pray the changes will bring much needed accountability to the process of how money is spent. We have a lot of missions work to do, and it does take a lot of money to do it.

Rather than abandoning ship, pray for us as we seek to turn the ship the right direction. Whereas large organizations can go awry, and our task force report shows that some things did, large organizations also have to be more accountable because of their large number of constituents. This forces the pendulum to swing back, or the organization will lose its base of support. In the long run, Southern Baptists are able to do more for missions by giving collectively. It is an efficient way to do missions. That’s why other organizations like the United Way have copied our model of the Cooperative Program.
