In February, Fern Creek was one of five churches disfellowshipped from the Southern Baptist Convention because they have female pastors. But Fern Creek and Saddleback Church of California have decided to appeal. The challenge will be voted on at the upcoming SBC annual meeting. (AP Photo/Jessie Wardarski)
