On TV: Ted Haggard

tedhaggard.jpgTed Haggard, the high profile Colorado pastor who resigned from his post as National Association of Evangelicals presidents in disgrace in 2006, is to be the subject of a new documentary this month.

The documentary, “The Trials of Ted Haggard,” is to air on HBO on Jan. 29.

The evangelical faith community was rocked when a former male prostitute came forth in 2006 to say that the pastor had paid him to have sex with him and to acquire methamphetamine.

Haggard subsequently confessed to ”sin” and he and his church, New Life Church in Colorado Springs, parted ways.

Haggard, apparently still is married to his wife. He is reportedly promoting the new documentary. It reportedly gives a glimpse of Haggard’s life and  reexamines the scandal.
