SBC president Bart Barber has named South Carolina pastor David Sons as the chairman of the Committee on Resolutions for the 2023 SBC Annual Meeting to be held in New Orleans this June.

Sons, lead pastor of Lake Murray Baptist Church in Lexington, S.C., was a member of the 2022 committee in Anaheim and serves as the vice chairman of the SBC Executive Committee.

“I’m humbled and honored to have been asked to serve our Convention of churches as chairman of this committee,” Sons said. “Resolutions play a critical role to empower messengers to the Annual Meeting with the ability to speak clearly to important issues in our culture and Convention. The resolutions process works best when the broadest swath of Southern Baptist opinion is represented in a resolution. To that end, I look forward to working alongside the rest of the committee to present resolutions that best represent the heart, conviction, and cooperation of Southern Baptists.”
