10-Point Theological Scorecard

Christology

Is Jesus the only way? (John 14:6)

SBC — orthodox expected.

Strong

Scripture

Inerrancy affirmed? Final authority?

'Anchoring all we say and do in God's Word' — high view of Scripture framing confirmed. 'Identity, Beliefs, Key Documents' page exists but content not surfaced this pass.

Strong

Men's Discipleship

Intentional formation for men?

No men's ministry confirmed.

WARNING!

Soteriology

Faith alone? How is salvation presented?

SBC — faith alone expected.

Strong

Gender / Biblical Design

Biblical manhood and womanhood by God's design — patriarchal, complementarian, egalitarian, or affirming gender ideology?

Male pastor; verify.

Caution

Leadership Structure

Male elders/pastors? Accountability?

Daniel Palmer is Lead Pastor, SEBTS-trained (MDiv), and SBCV Secretary — male leadership with denominational accountability.

Caution

Preaching Style

Expository or topical/therapeutic?

'Anchoring all that we say and do in God's Word' — Scripture-anchored framing; specific expository/topical methodology not named.

Caution

Mission Clarity

Great Commission central?

Three-focus mission: 'be Christ's church' through biblical anchoring; local impact in Roanoke Valley; global reach 'getting the gospel to people from every tribe and language and people and nation' — clear Great Commission framing.

Caution

Cultural Alignment

DEI/CRT language? Social justice crowding out gospel?

Lead pastor serves as SBCV Secretary — SBCV is conservative SBC state convention. Cultural alignment green given SBCV officer role.

Strong

Accountability Structure

Denominational home, elder plurality, or external network — is the pastor answerable to anyone?

SBCV affiliation not surfaced on homepage this pass; remains based on prior research.
