Richard Land: Quiet defender of conservative Baptist line
In Nashville, Rev. Richard Land leads the SBC Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission and shapes a measured conservative agenda. The 59-year-old scholar-lobbyist argues for Judeo Christian values in American society, while engaging liberals in thoughtful debate. Land, tied to the Bush administration and respected across ideologies, is described as highly disciplined and articulate. He has written a forthcoming book and maintains wide ties with political figures and religious leaders.
