Wisconsin Church Becomes First Church to Leave the Network, Following Allegations of Misconduct
Published By admin with Comments 0
A church in Wisconsin has announced it will disaffiliate from the Network, a non-denominational network of churches accused of operating like a cult. Citing an inability to “address issues and resolve concerns,” the church is the first to leave the controversial group since recent allegations of misconduct.
On August 31, the board of overseers of Isaiah Church in Madison, Wisconsin, posted online that they had “made the decision to formally disassociate from the network of churches we have previously belonged to.” Leaders cited “concerns surrounding leadership theology, church governance, and past decisions with network leadership.”
The Network, led by founder Steve Morgan, bills itself as “not a denomination, but (churches) like-minded in doctrine and style.”
However, as previously reported by The Roys Report (TRR), a group of former staff and members of Network-affiliated churches claim the Network is characterized by a “cult-like” culture of spiritual abuse and secrecy. This includes Morgan’s failure to disclose alleged sexual abuse decades ago.
