For years Brian Houston has been synonymous with the Hillsong Church. This week the pastor was forced to resign as church leader amid shocking revelations, first detailed in Crikey, about his treatment of women. It all began last Friday when investigations editor David Hardaker got exclusive access to an all-staff meeting, revealing two incidents of Houston’s alleged misbehaviour. By Wednesday, Houston was out the door, leaving the US-based corporation in tatters. Journalism like this is not easy to do, but it’s part of Crikey’s mission. Thank you for supporting what we’re doing. |
