RZIM leaders Joanna and Vince Vitale have announced that they are resigning from Ravi Zacharias International Ministries in order to "step into a substantial season of reordering."

Lori Anne Thompson, one of the survivors of Ravi Zacharias’s abuse, has published her response to the apologies she has received from RZIM senior leaders Abdu Murray and Michael Ramsden.

As Christians and church leaders continue to wrestle with the aftermath of the Ravi Zacharias scandal, pastor and author John Piper offers several insights from the lives of three New Testament ministers.

Margie Zacharias, wife of disgraced apologist Ravi Zacharias, denies that her deceased husband was guilty of spiritual and sexual abuse—despite extensive evidence to the contrary. 

In an announcement that she is stepping down as director of Wellspring International, Naomi Zacharias alluded to the pain she is dealing with as a result of her father’s sexual misconduct, but did not mention the victims of his abuse.

Should we pull all Ravi Zacharias books and the apologist's other content given what we now know? Not surprisingly, how Christian leaders answer this question is closely tied to how they perceive the severity of the Zacharias's crimes. 

There are obvious lessons evangelicals ought to be learning from the horrific abuse perpetrated by Ravi Zacharias, says victims advocate Rachael Denhollander. And these lessons emphasize the importance of an investigation she has been requesting for some time.

One reaction we must not have to the Ravi Zacharias scandal, say Christian leaders, is to downplay what Zacharias did.
