Sunday Globe Special: Theology Class at Andover Newton

"Andover Newton Theological head admits extramarital affair; School stunned by news just days before inaugural" by Peter Schworm | Globe Staff   October 12, 2014

Just a few days before his inauguration, the president of Andover Newton Theological School, a Christian seminary in Newton, made a stunning public admission: He acknowledged having an extramarital relationship, an admission that has badly shaken the small campus.

The unusually forthright public admission hung heavy over Rev. Martin Copenhaver’s inauguration ceremony last Sunday at Old South Church in Boston and deeply disappointed many students, faculty, and graduates.

Why? The relationship is over.

It's almost enough to make you want to convert and listen to the call of the minarets.
