What Ravi Taught Us
Processing the Fall of Ravi Zacharias
Questions have arisen in the church worldwide as it has been revealed that yet another prominent evangelical leader and Christian apologist, Ravi Zacharias, was leading something of a double life with unconfessed sexual sin.
In this video, Andrew Selley and Luke Hulley discuss the impact this has had on the church, why this is the case and what we can learn from Ravi’s fall. They address questions such as, “How can such a leader fall in sin while being used so powerfully by God?”, “What about the things Ravi said and taught, are they still true?”, “Would Ravi have made it to Heaven?”, “Is there a problem in the Evangelical church today with so many leaders falling in sin?”, and “What should Four12 churches, and Andrew, practically do to try and prevent the same occurring within their leadership teams?”.
They also touch on accountability and openness, the irrevocable call of God, realistic expectations on leaders, imitating and following leaders, the biblical church’s role as a place of safety, and the fear of God.
Andrew is the apostolic leader of Four12 (F12) and the lead elder of multisite, Joshua Generation Church. He has been in full-time ministry since 1996.
