    They've yet to scrub his bio from their website:

    Brent Leatherwood - ERLC

    Before coming to the SBC's Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission, he'd been the the executive director of the Tennessee Republican Party.

    Lesson to be learned: It would be wise for the leadership of the church to steer clear of divisive politics.
