C&MA Decides Not to Discipline Ravi Zacharias Over Credentials, Illicit Relationship

The Christian and Missionary Alliance (C&MA) has decided not to discipline apologist Ravi Zacharias over his misuse of his credentials and an alleged illicit relationship with a Canadian woman. Zacharias has been licensed under The Christian and Missionary Alliance (C&MA) for 45 years. Along with all C&MA licensed workers, he is subject to the Uniform Policy on Discipline, Restoration, and Appeal.

Recently Mr. Zacharias has been accused of exaggerating his academic credentials. Zacharias and his website has been using the title "doctor" when Zacharias has had never earned a doctorate.. Zacharias and his employer, Ravi Zacharias International Ministries, have revised and clarified their communications to address these concerns. The C&MA has determined that there is no basis for formal discipline regarding this matter.

Zacharias has also been accused of engaging in an immoral relationship with a woman through the use of electronic communications. The C&MA recently completed a thorough inquiry of these accusations, including interviews with those involved and a review of all available documentation and records. While it is not appropriate to publicly discuss the nuances of these allegations, the available evidence does not provide a basis for formal discipline under the C&MA policy.
