The Southern Baptist Convention expelled four churches, including one in KY, for having a woman senior minister and two for sexual abuse policy failures.

The Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) has expelled four churches, including one in Kentucky, for having a woman as a senior minister and two for alleged failures related to sexual abuse policies.

The decision was made by the SBC Executive Committee after a closed-door session in Nashville.
