NASHVILLE (BP) — Social media, particularly Twitter, was a preferred format for Southern Baptist leaders and others to express their reactions in the hours that followed the landmark Supreme Court decisions on gay “marriage” June 26. Columns written and tweeted by R. Albert Mohler Jr. of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Ky., and Russell D. Moore of the Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission, were among the most popular, with several leaders retweeting their words. O.S. Hawkins, president of GuideStone Financial Resources, tweeted, “After SCOTUS news really thankful 2nite 4 @albertmohler @drmoore who speak truth in love defending Biblical values in a culture gone awry.”
