At the Southern Baptist Convention, Richard Land advocated for “sustained prayer” as “the only answer for our country….The hope for America will not come from Washington, D.C., not from the Supreme Court and not from Congress.” These statements, however, do not mean a less politicized SBC: Land cited “four modern-day horsemen of the apocalypse”: “the spiritual and moral wasteland of pornography,” the “radical homosexual agenda’s attempt to undermine and destroy the family…the sanctity of human life issue,” and “radical Islamic jihadism,” and the Convention passed resolutions urging political action against the forces pushing America into a “spiritual and moral cesspool.”
