When Johnny Hunt was first elected president of the SBC in June of 2008, we should have foreseen the GCR task force recommendation on the horizon.

He replied, "I would like to think it is this: we need change. Radical change. We can't just drift along just being good ol' boys .... I think this is like a wake up call-‘Would somebody please stand up and tell us what we need to do next and how we can do it?'" (
