SBC to create event: Repentance in 5 days

In Nashville, Tenn., the Great Commission Resurgence Task Force, which is a body organized by the Southern Baptist Convention, issued a report recently with an emphasis on repentance and a call to a "solemn assembly."

Reportedly, the solemn assembly is to be held for the "purpose of calling Christ's people to return to God, to repentance, and to humility in service to a renewed commitment to Christ and the Great Commission," with the challenge reiterated by SBC President Bryant Wright and the leaders of the convention's bodies.
