Pastor, writer and Gospel Coalition theologian Sam Allberry is "currently disqualified from gospel ministry" after new information about a past relationship with another man came to light, his church says.

He is also "repentant and humble," and working with church leaders, who say they continue to care for him "as a brother in Christ".

Allberry studied theology at Wycliffe Hall in Oxford and served on the staff at St Ebbe's Church, Oxford, and St Mary's, Maidenhead. He has written several books, including What God Has to Say About Our Bodies, Why Does God Care Who I Sleep With? and 7 Myths About Singleness, and has been a popular conference speaker.
