The elders of The Crowded House church (TCH) in Sheffield have apologised over the behaviour of former leader Steve Timmis after an independent enquiry found ‘evidence of a pattern of coercive and controlling behaviour’ by the former leader of the Acts 29 church network.
His behaviour led to members of his church experiencing significant emotional and psychological harm, according to the report by Christian safeguarding charity thirtyone:eight.
Timmis stood down at the time of the accusations and was replaced as leader of the Acts 29 church network.
