International House of Prayer Kansas City (IHOPKC) has confirmed reports of “inappropriate behavior” by its founder, Mike Bickle, and has announced a permanent split with him. The organization made this decision after conducting an internal investigation into the allegations against Bickle.
In a statement released to the press, IHOPKC expressed its commitment to ensuring a safe and healthy environment for its staff and participants. The organization emphasized that it takes allegations of misconduct seriously and will not tolerate any form of inappropriate behavior.
This decision comes after Bickle’s controversial comments about women and LGBTQ individuals were brought to light, sparking backlash and calls for accountability. IHOPKC has made it clear that Bickle’s actions do not align with the values and principles of the organization.
IHOPKC has stated that it will continue its mission of prayer and worship without Bickle’s involvement. The organization is committed to creating a culture of transparency, integrity, and accountability moving forward.
This announcement has shocked many in the community who have looked up to Mike Bickle as a spiritual leader. The decision to permanently split with Bickle marks a significant turning point for IHOPKC and underscores the organization’s commitment to upholding ethical standards and promoting a safe and inclusive environment for all individuals.
Moving forward, IHOPKC will work to rebuild trust with its supporters and reaffirm its dedication to its mission of prayer and worship. The organization hopes that this decision will send a clear message that inappropriate behavior will not be tolerated within its ranks.
