  • Pastor Defends ICE Raids and Deportations: "It's Biblical Justice"

    Pastor Defends ICE Raids and Deportations: "It's Biblical Justice"
    Dec 24 2025
    In today's episode of the Center for Baptist Leadership podcast, William Wolfe sits down with Lewis Richerson, Lead Pastor of Woodlawn Baptist Church, to unpack his recent interview with the New York Times on biblical justice and immigration. Pastor Lewis came to Woodlawn in May 2012. He previously served at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in various capacities from 2005-2012 where he also received his Master of Divinity with Biblical Languages (M.Div.) and Doctorate of Philosophy in Preaching (Ph.D.) degrees. Lewis began his pastoral ministry in 1999, while a senior in high school, as an interim pastor in rural Rapides Parish, Louisiana. That experience, along with his other ministry experiences (he served churches in Louisiana and Texas) have given him a passion for people and the Word of God. In addition to leading in the local church, Pastor Lewis has been instrumental in launching a ministry in India that includes an accredited Bible college and seminary, church planting efforts all over India, an orphan ministry, and pastor training.

  • Baptists with Backbone in the Public Square (ft. Wolfe, Deevers, Davis, Money, & Colter)

    Baptists with Backbone in the Public Square (ft. Wolfe, Deevers, Davis, Money, & Colter)
    Nov 7 2025

    Alongside SBC 2025 at CBL's "For the Faithful Majority" Conference, Dusty Deevers, Chase Davis, Brent Money, and Dr. Scott Colter sit down to discuss "Baptists with Backbone in the Public Square."

    Panelists emphasize Christ's sovereignty over all areas of life, including politics, and criticize the church's historical passivity. The speakers call for Christians to be bold, active, and unapologetic in addressing issues like abortion, transgender ideology, and school curricula. They argue that Southern Baptists should mobilize, vote, and run for office to influence culture and politics. The panel highlights the need for pastors to preach truth and for Christians to see their faith as applicable to every sphere of life.

    Whether we DOGE or Die: Lifesaving Reforms for SBC (ft. Rice, Whitehead, Burns, Schrock, & Gentry)
    Nov 5 2025
    Alongside the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) annual meeting 2025 the Center for Baptist Leadership hosted the "For the Faithful Majority Conference," William Wolfe emphasized the importance of the SBC's strength and fidelity to the Bible. He highlighted the 40th anniversary of W.A. Criswell's sermon and his personal conversion story. The event featured keynote speaker Steve Deace, sponsor booths, and panels discussing the SBC's integrity, financial transparency, and the role of the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission (ERLC). A motion to abolish the ERLC was proposed, and Rhett Burns advocated for 990-level transparency to enhance trust and accountability. The meeting concluded with a call to action for messengers to participate in upcoming votes. In this panel, Dr. Willy Rice, Jon Whitehead, Rhett Burns, Dr. David Schrock, and Steve Gentry emphasize the need for financial transparency within the SBC and ERLC. –––––– Follow Center for Baptist Leadership across Social Media: X / Twitter – https://twitter.com/BaptistLeaders Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/people/Center-For-Baptist-Leadership/61556762144277/ Rumble – https://rumble.com/c/c-6157089 YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@CenterforBaptistLeadership Website – https://centerforbaptistleadership.org/ To book William for media appearances or speaking engagements, please contact him at media@centerfor­baptistleadership.org.
