Disgraced Pastor Johnny Hunt Joins Prominent Southern Baptists As Conference Speaker

Fresh off having been deemed fit to return to ministry, disgraced SBC Pastor Johnny Hunt is headlining the Great Commission Weekend conference, a three-day event where he’ll be speaking with other prominent Southern Baptists.

Six months ago, First Baptist Church of Woodstock formally suspended Pastor Emeritus Johnny Hunt, 69, after being accused of sexually assaulting another pastor’s wife a decade earlier.

You can read more about the details here, but 12 years ago, while on vacation with another pastor and his wife, Hunt is accused of making inappropriate comments about her body, such as her tan lines. He then maneuvered himself into her room, where he is alleged to have pinned her to the couch, got on top of her, forcibly removed her clothes, groped her and put his hands and mouth on her breasts and body. She describes it as a sexual assault, and he says it was consensual. The church was never told, and it was only revealed after a Guidepost Investigation.

Confirmed guests include Dr. Jerry Vines, Dr. David Allen, Pastor Ronnie Floyd, Dr. Scott Colter, Pastor Stoney Benfield, Pastor Mike Stone, Dr. Mark Ballard, Dr. Marvin Jones, and Dr. Timothy Pigg.

Hunt is disqualified from the ministry, wholly and utterly, and the fact that these men are ok with him preaching at this event is shameful.
