Public Affairs & Advocacy

We represent Georgia Baptists as a voice on critical issues that affect our churches, families, and religious liberty.

Wherever the interests of Georgia Baptists, we go. Through interaction and negotiation with elected officials, government agencies, other influential bodies, we give special attention to religious liberty and church-state matters. We also give a voice on behalf of the Georgia Baptists to its thought and position on public issues as approved in reports or resolutions by the Georgia Baptist Convention. The Committee on Public Affairs also articulates the thinking of the Convention on subjects of public policy and social issues upon which the Convention has declared itself.
