By: Dr. Mimi Haddad, President of CBE International | July 23, 2018
Many of us are outraged by accounts of inappropriate behavior by Willow Creek Church founder Bill Hybels. We’re disappointed because WC’s prominence as a leading egalitarian megachurch demands greater accountability.
Mars Hill Remixed: Preventing the Past from Becoming the Present
By: Jamin Hübner | July 16, 2018
How on earth could something so public and so obvious and so notorious repeat itself in our information age? But then I remembered: I’ve seen this happen in my own former church, and it continues to happen in countless other churches across the world.
