After Moral Failures, R.C. Sproul Jr. Launches College to Train ‘Men of Godly Character’

June 29, 2021 by Staff

(The Roys Report) After multiple moral failures, disgraced pastor R.C. Sproul Jr. has not only planted a new church, but this week is launching a new ministerial college to “train up men of godly character.”

In February, Sproul Jr. — son of the late reformed theologian R.C. Sproul — planted his newest church, Sovereign Grace Fellowship, in Fort Wayne, Indiana. And just this week, Sproul announced that his newest venture, Shepherd’s College, will be accepting applications for its pilot cohort.

In a YouTube announcement, Sproul said Shepherd’s College will operate under the umbrella of Dunamis Fellowship, an Indiana nonprofit formed in 2019. Sproul described the venture as “an attempt to absolutely provide for an educated clergy but also to recognize that the qualities that define the elder according to the word of God are character qualities.”
