MorningStar Ministries is on the defensive amid legal battles regarding the alleged sexual abuse cases of minors by a former volunteer at the church.
In a statement to the Christian Post, MorningStar is sticking to its belief that they should not be blamed for what happened to the alleged victims.

We are aware that several young men have filed lawsuits against the ministry. While we don’t know at this point what more we could have done to have vetted Officer Lee in advance to ensure that he would not have taken advantage of these young me, we hold no malice or anger towards the young men or their parents who have chosen to file the suit.
The ministry claims that some of the alleged victims and their families continued to go to the church after they were abused by Lee.
Some of these families remained active in our church even for months after Officer Lee’s arrest, and they are always welcome at MorningStar.
Lee pleaded guilty to second and third-degree criminal sexual misconduct with a child, per the Christian Post.
This legal battle for MorningStar has become especially contentious, with Chris Reed claiming that he left the ministry largely due to this case. Continue to lift up all those caught up in this case in prayer.
