NASHVILLE  Ed Litton would have been happy remaining a local church pastor.  Instead, Litton finds himself leading the largest Protestant denomination in the U.S. as it faces continued divisions over race, a sex abuse crisis and the role of women in ministry.  Litton, elected Tuesday as the next president of the Southern Baptist Convention, is seen by many as a pastor who can help Southern Baptists unite and avoid an exodus of minority members worried about whether they have a future home in the conservative denomination.   I think in some ways, I was ready to go home, he told reporters Tuesday night. I told my church last week, I said, If next Wednesday morning I wake up and I m just your pastor, I am so good with that. The highest honor of my life is to pastor a local church. But I also have a deep burden for people that I love. And I want to do whatever I can to help us pull this together. I m not Superman. I have no magic.
