    That’s true, but how big is the reformist branch on the point of female pastors? I’d have to imagine it’s tiny. I don’t think there was much discussion here.

    • Saddleback Church claims a membership of over 350k parishioners across 29 branches.

      This is the church that’s being denied reentry over its women in leadership.

        Out of 13.2 million members and 47,198 churches in the SBC. I don’t have hard numbers on other churches that support this, but this church, even as big as it is, is still tiny compared to the entire denomination.
