The New Life Church overseers will meet with former Pastor Ted Haggard Tuesday to discuss possible violations of an agreement that ended his relationship with the mega-church he founded.
Haggard moved to Phoenix, Ariz., to undergo treatment after admitting to buying but not using methamphetamines and to "sexual immorality" following last year’s 9Wants To Know investigation into his relationship with a gay escort.He resigned from the church and from the National Association of Evangelicals in November 2006 after the scandal broke.
In February, Haggard signed a legal agreement with the New Life Church. The church leadership agreed to continue paying Haggard his salary for a year in exchange for Haggard agreeing not to speak publicly about the scandal and for his family to leave Colorado Springs and the ministry altogether.
Overseer Mike Ware, who also serves as head pastor at the Victory Church in Westminster, spoke to 9NEWS Tuesday morning from Denver International Airport as he was about to board a plane for Phoenix to meet with Haggard in person.
Some days, nothing seems to go right…
