Uncovering the Scandalous Downfall of Hillsong Church and its Affiliated Celebrities.

TL;DR Summary
Hillsong, a global megachurch known for its hipster trappings and celebrity congregants, has been embroiled in a series of scandals, including the firing of its celebrity pastor, Carl Lentz, for "moral failures." A new documentary series, "The Secrets of Hillsong," explores the church's history and features the first interview with Mr. Lentz since his firing. Hillsong's founder, Brian Houston, resigned in March 2022 after the church said he behaved inappropriately toward two women, and nine of the 16 Hillsong churches in the United States cut ties with the organization.
