C.J. Mahaney Cleared by Sovereign Grace Ministries' Board of Directors

[C.J. Mahaney's ministry has been a blessing to me personally, primarily through his book, The Cross-Centered Life, and so I was extremely happy to read the following report, as quoted on Challies' blog. (Mahaney had been accused by a small, loud group of former Sovereign Grace Ministries members of such seemingly vague indiscretions as pride, deceit, and hypocrisy.)]


Dave Harvey: “In July 2011, Sovereign Grace Ministries (SGM) installed an interim Board of Directors. Our primary task was to determine C.J. Mahaney’s fitness to serve SGM as President in light of accusations made against him by a former SGM leader. … After examining the reports of these three review panels, we find nothing in them that would disqualify C.J. from his role as President, nor do they in any way call into question his fitness for gospel ministry. Therefore the Board has decided unanimously to return C.J. to the office of President, effective immediately.”
