Are the rumors I heard about a former employee’s salary true?

There has been some speculation online about the salary of a former NAMB employee.

While NAMB can’t share confidential salary information about any current or former employee or comment specifically on active litigation, no one at NAMB — now or at any time — has ever been paid anywhere near as much as the salary amount that is being speculated online.

The court filing which appears to have given rise to this online speculation is publicly available, and it does not mention NAMB by name. There is no way to factually conclude from that document what the plaintiff or any other employee was being paid by NAMB. It is regrettable that some parties have drawn conclusions and spread them around the Internet. Unfortunately, none of these parties contacted NAMB first for confirmation or denial.

At NAMB we are grateful for every dollar Southern Baptists have entrusted to us, and we strive to be the very best stewards of those resources. You can read more about that on our Financial Transparency and Accountability page.
