BCFS in Texas is associated with the Baptist General Convention of Texas which is the oldest but most liberal Southern Baptist association in the state. Big on social justice, not so much on the Gospel.

In 1998 the more conservative Southern Baptist Churches in Texas split from this group and formed their own convention the “Southern Baptists of Texas Convention”. This sort of thing has happened in several other states as well.

I'm still confused. Is BCFC perhaps an ex-Baptist organization?

A little more info here:
