*'''Comment''' -- This needs to be considered as part of the nomination for [[Covenant Baptist Theological Seminary]], of which he is president and perhaps founder. If that article is kept (and the current votes suggest that it will be), there is a case for keeping this or at worst '''redirect'''ing to it.

*'''Comment''' -- I agree with [[User:Peterkingiron|Peterkingiron]]. I came to add a page for Sam Waldron partly due to his role in the start of this seminary (there are two of other seminaries that use the same model IRBS and RBS). CBTS is interesting because it turned a congregational pastor mentoring center, at Heritage Baptist Church in Owensboro, in to a seminary. The local training center that became CBTS it seems was formed on the model provided by Albert N. Martin's Trinity Training Academy, now defunct after his retirement, that previously resided along side the [[https://www.tcsnj.org| Trinity Classical School]] at Trinity Baptist Church in Mountville, NJ. The previous Heritage Pastor, Ted Christman, and Sam Waldron were both connected to this program. Additional motivation for adding his page is due to his apparent role in shaping the theological viewpoint the above institutions embrace. The problem with citing this influence is that he is the author of much of the content thus it is not "independent". I am not connected to this group of folks but, looking at the group, the lines are clearly connected. He is the one who gives the "modern" theological defenses for many of the particulars that these three seminaries and their associated churches stand on: the regulative principle of the church, Plurality of Elders, a modern exposition of the [[1689_Baptist_Confession_of_Faith|London Baptist Confession of faith 1689]] on which they all stand. It is a narrow (but growing) corner that these schools fit in: namely carrying out their belief that a to-be pastors's training in practical ministry should be done that person's pastors and thus, the role of the seminary is to provide what a local church's pastors cannot: academic rigor. Given the small subset of schools who actually do this, once a predominant "modern" defense of attending principles is made, others don't need to write another "modern" defense. Which means there is not a lot to cite on the importance of the individual's contribution to the movement that is forming. [[User:Kyle.Mullaney|Kyle.Mullaney]] ([[User talk:Kyle.Mullaney|talk]])
