Search begins for next ABSC executive director

LITTLE ROCK – The Operating Committee of the Executive Board of the Arkansas Baptist State Convention (ABSC) is beginning its search for the next executive director.

The Operating Committee serves as the search team for the next executive director and makes its recommendation to the Executive Board. The executive director is then elected by the Executive Board, which is comprised of Arkansas Baptists from across the state elected annually by messengers of the Convention.   

The search team will consider recommendations and resumes sent to  executivedirectorsearch@absc.org.  

The executive director will lead the ABSC staff in serving the needs of the more than 1,400 churches of the Convention.   

Dr. Rex Horne, who serves as the current executive director of the Convention, announced earlier this month he will begin the process of transitioning out of the role. While there is no definitive timeline in place, Horne anticipated that the transition would take place by the end of the year.   

Information on the search process will continue to be forthcoming from the Operating Committee.
