Dr. Kevin Ezell, NAMB President
In the famous prime-time soap opera one will remember a year when the season ending finale was the main character JR Ewing getting shot. For the entire off-season viewers wanted to know the person that shot him. Well, there seems to be another “mystery” unfolding and it is now within SBC life. Who was Dr. Kevin Ezell speaking of when he referenced a particular blogger in his interview with Dr. Ed Stetzer when he said;
“[he] had particularly harsh things to say about me”
Dr. Ed Stetzer has an interesting interview with Kevin Ezell posted on his blog. One particular query Stetzer pitched at Ezell involved the comment Ezell made about those who raised questions concerning his church’s giving record. Ezell told his church, “”…there are people…[who] …try to get their name in the paper. Typically those are bloggers who live with their mother and wear a housecoat during the day.”
Dr. Ed Stetzer, President of Lifeway Research, Vice-President of Research and Church Ministries
Stetzer raised Ezell’s use of these words in a light-hearted way:
Q: You poked some at bloggers at Highview– I had to throw away my housecoat. Time Magazine acknowledged the influence of SBC bloggers saying (of Frank Page) that “the bloggers elected a President.” Any thoughts on how the blogosphere will influence SBC life?
