‘I’ve Lost Everything’: Celebrity Pastor Reveals Powerful Lessons He’s Learned in the Wake of Adultery Scandal

By Published on August 27, 2015

A prominent pastor who resigned from his church after revealing that he was guilty of a “moral failure” is speaking out as he copes with the very public fallout, revealing the two key conclusions that he has come to in recent months regarding his sinfulness and “God’s grace.”

“I’ve been forced to face myself in a deeper way than I ever have, and I’ve come to two conclusions,” Pastor Tullian Tchividjian told The Church Boys podcast. “I’m far worse than I ever thought I was [and] God’s grace is infinitely greater than I could have ever hoped for or imagined.”

 Tchividjian, 43, who recently vacated his position as pastor of Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, spoke out in an in-depth interview with this author and fellow Blaze editor Chris Field, discussing his sins and the obstacles that he has faced in recent months.

“I’m alive and breathing and I am doing far better than I deserve,” Tchividjian said when asked how he’s currently faring.

The pastor, who is the grandson of famed preacher Billy Graham, landed in the headlines after telling The Washington Post back on June 21 that his marriage has been in turmoil after discovering that his wife, Kim, was having an affair earlier this year; he also admitted at the time that he subsequently had an affair of his own.
