On Johnny Hunt and the SBC Presidency: Nathan Finn offers his detailed break down of the pros and cons of Hunt’s candidacy along with an endorsement. This is the most in-depth discussion yet. Dr. Finn seems to have considered all the angles.

Johnny Hunt to be SBC presidential nominee: This is the official Baptist press story. They give some good biographical information on Johnny Hunt.

Woodstock’s Johnny Hunt allows name to be placed as SBC presidential nominee: The Christian Index (Georgia’s state Baptist newspaper) also covers the story in-depth. This article includes a lot of statistics to chew on.

SBC President: Ed Stetzer was on top of this story last night (he even got permission) and added his own 2¢ “It should be a good year with so many godly men interested in leading this convention through challenging times. Pray for God’s direction and guidance. I believe that God can bring us together and focus us on His mission.“
