Like many Southern Baptists, I have been praying for months for the International Mission Board (IMB) of the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) Search Team as they have sought to find God’s man to be the next President. I had heard that Dr. David Platt was a prime candidate for the position, but I have been a Baptist long enough to know that though he may have been the frontrunner, you never know what will happen in Baptist life.
