5/22/2023 0 Comments John piper romansMeyer, resigned last week, even though his biography remains on the church’s website. Now, Meyer is part of a growing exodus of leaders and members leaving Bethlehem, a church with some 4,500 members on three campuses which is seen as a flagship church in Converge, formerly the Baptist General Conference. Meyer’s most recent title was pastor for preaching & vision at Bethlehem’s downtown campus. He now serves as pastor emeritus of the church and chancellor of the college and seminary. Piper had served the church for three decades. The congregation voted 784 to 4 to elect Meyer, and Piper stepped down as senior pastor one year later. Jason Meyer, a graduate of the church’s Bethlehem College and Seminary, was a leading choice, even though, as he later told Leadership Journal, the responsibility seemed too big to bear.
