Facts
Assessment
Reliability Tier2
The Association of Religion Data Archives' group profile for the Progressive National Baptist Convention, Inc., the middle tier reflecting an academically hosted data aggregator drawing on the established 2020 Religious Congregations and Membership Study rather than the denomination's own self-report or a peer reviewed study of its own. Cite it for the counted membership and congregation figures it reports. NotesARDA compiles the Religious Congregations and Membership Study from congregation-level reporting gathered independently of each denomination's own head office, so its United States count is treated here as an independent survey rather than a church-reported figure; it explicitly covers domestic congregations only, not any denomination's congregations outside the United States.
