​The Baptist Association: Assisting Churches, Advancing the Gospel


As Southern Baptists, we believe we can accomplish more together than we can separately for the Lord. Even before there was a Southern Baptist Convention (SBC), associations were the cornerstone of cooperation among Baptist churches in America.

The Southern Baptist Conference of Associational Leaders (SBCAL), the oldest and largest associational network recognized by the SBC, is pleased to sponsor this work. After extensive research, the SBCAL gathered successful associational leaders and other respected leaders from across the United States to contribute chapters to The Baptist Association. This book marks the renaissance of the importance of associations, of the distinctive role of the associational leader, and of the proficiencies of an effective Associational Mission Strategist (AMS) in the 21st century.

​This book is for:
• Seminary students to explore the history, role, and importance of local associations so they understand the blessings and benefits of associating with sister churches when they graduate and serve in a church.
• Prospective and new associational leaders seeking to understand the expectations and needs of associations and to learn the 17 Proficiencies of an Effective Associational Mission Strategist.
• Seasoned associational leaders who are assisting their churches in advancing the Gospel amidst a changing culture by equipping them to lead even more effectively.
• Anyone serving in or alongside associations desiring to make associational ministry more effective – AMS search committees, associational moderators, associational committee members, pastors, SBC and state convention leaders, and others.
