Findings that rest on exhibits naming this entity
- REL-3.10: The Guidepost Solutions investigation of 22 May 2022 found that from 2007 a staff member of the Southern Baptist Convention's Executive Committee kept a list of accused ministers, the latest version with 703 names, and that there is no indication anyone acted to ensure those ministers were out of positions of power at SBC churches. It found that senior Executive Committee leaders and outside counsel were focused on avoiding liability, and that counsel advised staff not to elicit further information so the Committee would not assume a legal duty.
