(The Christian Post) Hillsong Church’s Global Senior Pastor Brian Houston announced Sunday that Chrishan Jeyaratnam and his wife, Danielle, will replace Carl Lentz as leaders of Hillsong East Coast following the sex scandal that brought down the church’s former leader.
Calling them Hillsong Church’s “absolute finest,” the leader of the evangelical, international, multicampus megachurch made the announcement during Hillsong’s Vision Sunday service.
“Everybody knows, certainly most people would know, toward the end of last year, it’s been a very challenging season at Hillsong in the United States, in particular in the East Coast New York,” Houston began.
