"Haggard Quits 'Spiritual Restoration,' New Life Cuts Ties With Haggard" Denver Post"Ted Haggard's leadership of New Life Church for many years was extraordinary and the depth of spiritual maturity that is found today in the church is in large part attributed to his leadership as the founding senior pastor," the statement said, adding that the church's "overseers" and "restorers" would not make further comment about Haggard's "spiritual restoration."
New Life added that Haggard has joined another mega-church, Phoenix First Assembly of God, and that its founding pastor, Tommy Barnett, is overseeing an "accountability relationship" with the disgraced Colorado pastor. Barnett could not be reached Tuesday night.
New Life has been at odds with its former pastor since he left.
In its statement Tuesday night, church officials said, "New Life recognizes the process of restoring Ted Haggard is incomplete and maintains its original stance that he should not return to vocational ministry. However, we wish him and his family only success in the future."
Just one year ago today, a four-member oversight board announced that after three weeks of intense counseling that Haggard was "completely heterosexual."

"Cured" of the vile sin of homosexuality in three weeks!? You'd figure Jesus could have easily kicked the Devil out of Haggard in less than a day, he's God and he was able to cast him out of heaven in less time than that.
