Southern Baptists

Southern Baptists are a major Christian denomination primarily in the United States, known for their emphasis on personal faith, the authority of the Bible, and evangelism. They organize into autonomous local churches that cooperate through regional and national groups, such as the Southern Baptist Convention. They practice believer’s baptism by immersion and hold conservative theological views. Southern Baptists are actively involved in missions, education, and social issues, advocating for religious liberty and moral values. With a large and diverse membership, they play a significant role in American religious and cultural life.
