task force

On Wednesday, Dr. Al Mohler released a statement telling the SBC's Executive Committee, "All SBC entities should respect and fully support the work of the Sexual Abuse Task Force."

More than two months in, the task force has completed two key tasks: picking Guidepost Solutions to be the third-party firm conducting the probe, and asking the Executive Committee to waive attorney-client privilege.

Messengers to the SBC’s annual meeting directed brand-new President Ed Litton to set up a task force to address concerns Southern Baptist leaders have mistreated abuse victims and mishandled allegations of abuse.
