Tony Evans, a renowned pastor, recently made a shocking announcement that has left the Christian community stunned. He revealed that he would be stepping away from his pastoral duties at Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship Church in Dallas, Texas, due to an undisclosed “sin” ¹ ². This decision was made after tremendous prayer and multiple meetings with Dr. Evans and the church elders.
Dr. Evans, who has pastored the 11,000-member church for 48 years, confessed that he fell short of the biblical standards espoused by his ministry, although he didn’t commit any crimes ¹ ². He acknowledged that he didn’t use righteous judgment in his actions, but didn’t provide specific details about the nature of his sin.
The church’s elder board released a statement saying that they would provide accountability and maintain integrity in the church, according to biblical standards ¹. Dr. Evans expressed his love for the church and his intention to continue as a worshipper at Oak Cliff.
