“We would suggest that he apologize to those [in discernment] writing the “many criticisms launched against Bickle” he mentioned defending against. Otherwise, we respect Storms for this statement, as it’s more than most in his position have ever done.”
(Protestia) In late 2023, Sam Storms, a member of the Council of The Gospel Coalition, past President of the Evangelical Theological Society, and former IHOPKC board member who ministered alongside Mike Bickle for nearly a decade, issued a statement saying that he found the allegations against his long time friend credible.
Today, he issued a “heartfelt apology to the body of Christ” on his personal website to express his “deeply sincere and profound apologies to those who suffered under Bickle’s leadership or abuse because of my former endorsement of him,” describing him now as a “wicked, two-faced abuser of women, most of whom were much younger than he.”
