Willow Creek

Popular Christian author Shauna Niequist has apologized for her silence following the allegations against her father, Bill Hybels, the founding pastor of suburban Chicago megachurch Willow Creek Community Church.

Dave Dummitt is the founding pastor of 2|42 Community Church in Michigan, which grew from a 35-member launch team meeting in Dave’s living room to more than 10,000 people meeting at seven different campuses each weekend.

In what they say will be their final Bill Hybels update, the elders of Willow Creek announced on Friday that they have tried reaching out to Hybels, urging him “to reflect on his years in ministry, repent where necessary, and seek to live out the ministry of reconciliation.”

The reconciliation needed in the wake of the Bill Hybels accusations has not yet taken place, says First Baptist Church of Athens, Texas. The church, which has been a member of the Willow Creek Association for 23 years, has written a public apology and has called on “everyone” to sign it.

An independent report found plenty of problems with the leadership of Willow Creek Church Chicago. While it recommends changes in course for the leadership, the report found the church members themselves to be faithful.

It's been a little over a month since Steve Carter resigned from his position as teaching pastor of Willow Creek. In a new interview, Carter opens up about his decision to leave and what might be ahead for him.

Over the last few weeks, two of the most influential churches in America’s history (Willow Creek and Saddleback Church) have made headlines. But for very different reasons.

The topic Danielle Strickland was given at the 2018 Global Leadership Summit was not an easy one no matter what the circumstances are, but given the recent events at Willow Creek, it was even more difficult.
