SGM Debacle: Harris's Mangled Effort at Disentanglement

This is a weak and poor effort by Mr. Harris to extricate Mahaney's flagship church, Covenant Life, from the SGM-Mr. Mahaney debacle.

  1. Josh Harris said; "This week a faithful member of this church wrote me and the pastors a letter that God really used to convict me and clarify the issue for me. And I have been getting a lot of letters. I have been getting a lot of criticism for how I have processed different things, but the clear reasoning—and maybe it was just the timing of the Lord… but the clear reasoning from Scripture and what he shared really helped me to see this more clearly. And in it he pointed out that Brent’s documents expose or allege the sin of many peo-ple, many lay people, not just pastors, but members of churches by name, in some cases kids. And these people have no way for their side of the story to be told. They have no process for clearing their name. And that really is true. And as I reflected on Brent’s documents and even the specific examples that this brother shared with me, Brent shares letters and information about many people that were gained through his role as a pastor and, in doing so, he harmed their reputations. "

    Myself, I certainly don't think Brent Detwiler is doing the Lords work.
