	Baptist Leader Resigns over Immoral Behavior Kansas City Star January 9, 2011 http://www.kansascity.com/2011/01/09/2571651/baptist-leader-resigns-over-immoral.html ST. LOUIS | The Missouri Baptist Convention says its executive director has resigned because of what it describes as "immoral behavior with a woman." The Rev. David Tolliver had led the 600,000-member state arm of the Southern Baptist Convention since February 2009. The organization said in a news release Friday that his departure is immediate. The release said that one of the organization's leaders, Jay Hughes, will fill in as executive director until a permanent replacement is named. No additional details were provided, and the Missouri Baptist Convention was closed Sunday. There was no immediate response to e-mail messages that The Associated Press sent to two of the organization's officials. Tolliver also didn't return a phone call from the AP.
