| Her father was Jack Hyles, also a womanizer. |
Jack Schaap was fired for having an affair with a teen-aged girl. He is the son-in-law of Jack Hyles, who was known for having multiple partners. Hyles' fundy sons, also ministers, had the same reputation.
Hyles had buttons made that said "100% Jack Hyles." He never lost his job for his many improprieties.
Apparently the huge congregation by-passed the randy sons of Jack Hyles, choosing Jack Schaap instead. Since Jack married Hyles' daughter, they were still keeping the church in the family. That is why insider deals should be avoided. Large independent congregations rely on chips off the old block, but that often disappoints everyone, as the Schuller clan has proven.
Schaap is hard to quantify at the moment. Very little is on the Net. However, his shift from the KJV, after promising the opposite, is an indication. Another one is the growing clan of Emergent Church fans that he built up in the congregation. He began advocating Emergent Church behavior before his downfall.
Schaap's initial pledge about the KJV must have been dishonest. Another explanation is that time spent at Fuller Seminary changed his mind. Like the WELS and Missouri leaders, he felt it necessary to cloak his unionism.
The ministers who gush over Church Growth or Emergent Church are always Fuller Seminary victims. So many imitations of Fuller are out there now, that it is possible to become converted away from the Pasadena re-education camp. However, it is not likely. Look for outraged articles to appear later, articles about Schaap that detail his furtive study at those dens of iniquity. Those articles will come from disappointed Fundies who were already outraged by Schaap's weird sexual-Christological theories and his abandonment of the KJV.
Schaap's former church will not admit to additional teen victims. In fact, they are in full cover-up mode already. They have hired a powerful attorney (sound like WELS?) to gather stories from other girls, so they can avoid messy arrests and criminal trials, not to mention multi-million dollar settlements.
