The Baptist Bulletin: A Strategic Pause

Since 1933, The Baptist Bulletin has told stories of faith, addressed cultural issues, and connected our churches through shared conviction and mission.

After nearly a century of faithful publication, The Baptist Bulletin will enter a strategic pause beginning in January 2026. This pause allows Regular Baptist Ministries to evaluate how best to steward resources, adapt to changing engagement habits, and discern the future of the Bulletin in a way that serves churches, pastors, and leaders well.

This decision was made prayerfully and deliberately. It reflects wise stewardship and positions RBM to move forward with clarity and purpose in the years ahead.
