Founders of Arise Church resign amid abuse allegations

The church board announced the resignations in a statement on Friday.

Also anti-vaxers. IIRC?

I don’t know the answer, but if they’re evangelicals it certainly would be unsurprising that they’re anti-vax. My mennonite relatives (new order) are absolutely the most hardcore unvaccinated people I know. I know others (especially of protestant faiths whose churchs are movie cinemas rented on Sunday mornings) who will have nothing to do with the jab. Still, I’m not convinced this makes them child abusers and molesters. You’d never know it by our modern-day guilt-by-association news and social media though, where anti-vax means pederast every bit as much as free speech means nazi. Just the way it is.
