(ChurchLeaders) Liberty University President and Chancellor Jerry Falwell Jr. is taking an indefinite leave of absence after posting a picture of himself on vacation that many deemed inappropriate for the leader of a Christian university to post.
In a brief announcement posted to the Liberty’s website today, the Lynchburg, Virginia- based school announced Falwell’s leave of absence is effective immediately:
The Executive Committee of Liberty University’s Board of Trustees, acting on behalf of the full Board, met today and requested that Jerry Falwell, Jr. take an indefinite leave of absence from his roles as President and Chancellor of Liberty University, to which he has agreed, effective immediately.
