J.D. Greear, the new president of the Southern Baptist Convention, wants to distance his church from political partisanship. But it would be a mistake to assume that means a retreat from the public sphere.

Not many people knew he was named Berlin. A roly-poly, soft-spoken man with a scruff of white hair and a big belly, Berrell Long lived quietly in a rundown house in Fries, Virginia. Thin, patchy wallpaper held the place together. There was no insulation, so he had to pile logs in a dirty old…
