Leading Reformed figure says he has 'sinned grievously'

Steven J Lawson

A leading figure in Reformed evangelicalism in the USA says he has "sinned grievously" through an inappropriate relationship with another woman.

Dr Steven J Lawson resigned from ministry at Trinity Bible Church of Dallas and also One Passion Ministries - an organisation designed to bring "a new Reformation" - last autumn. Statements from both at the time indicated the nature of his infidelity.

Now Lawson himself has made a one-off post on social media setting out what he says is his deep sorrow and repentance.
