Robert Morris, a founding pastor of Gateway Church who was accused of sexually abusing a girl when she was between the ages of 12 to 16, has resigned.
Gateway Church pastor Robert Morris talks on Wednesday, Sept. 21, 2016 during The Gathering at Gateway Church in Southlake, Tx. Christian leaders from across America came together for a day of pray and solemn assembly to call the nation to return to God. Dr. Tony Evans, senior pastor of Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship Church in Dallas and president of The Urban Alternative, is the chairman of the event that was held at Gateway Church in Southlake on Wednesday evening, Sept. 21, 2016.
“The elders’ prior understanding was that Morris’s extramarital relationship, which he had discussed many times throughout his ministry, was with “a young lady” and not abuse of a 12-year-old child,” Swicegood said in the release.The church’s board retained the law firm of Haynes & Boone to conduct an “independent, thorough and professional review” of the report of allegations of abuse to ensure we have a complete understanding of the events from 1982 and 1987, according to the statement.
