I have been informed by Tim Ellsworth (Director of News & Media Relations at Union University) that Dr. Dockery will not be nominating Jerry Sutton for president of the SBC. This follows an earlier report by Larry Reagan indicating that this would be the case. Jerry Sutton’s candidacy is still up in the air. It is unclear whether or not he will be nominated and if so, by whom. There should be an official announcement later today.

Keep an eye on Baptist Press and SBC Outpost for the latest information.
