Mon, Jan. 26 2009 02:11 PM ESTCOLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) – New Life Church will recover from new allegations in the 2-year-old sex scandal that brought down founder Ted Haggard, its pastor said Sunday.
Brady Boyd encouraged his Colorado Springs congregation and reminded them of their “holy tenacity,” two days after revelations that a male church volunteer reported having a sexual relationship with Haggard.
It’s the second such claim against Haggard. In late 2006, a male prostitute in Denver said he had a three-year cash-for-sex relationship with the former New Life pastor.

As part of its effort to get back on track financially, Crystal Cathedral laid off an unknown number of staff last week, including the church’s executive pastor and the pastor of its Hispanic ministry.
“These are really a group of great, talented people. But our numbers are down and we’re trying to make it under tough economic conditions like everyone else,” said Rick Mysse, a denominational executive for the Reform Church of America, which oversees the Garden Grove, Calif., megachurch, according to the local Orange County Register.
Mysse declined to name those who were laid off, but said among those let go was the pastor who headed Crystal Cathedral’s Hispanic ministry.

This is one of my favorite passages in the bible.
2 Corinthians 10:3-6
For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh,
for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses.We are destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ, and we are ready to punish all disobedience, whenever your obedience is complete.
