John Ortberg

John Carl Ortberg Jr. (born May 5, 1957) is an American evangelical Christian author, speaker, and the former senior pastor of Menlo Church in Menlo Park, California, an ECO Presbyterian church with more than 4,000 members. Ortberg has published many books, including the 2008 ECPA Christian Book Award winner ''When the Game is Over, It All Goes Back in the Box'', and the 2002 ''Christianity Today'' Book Award winner ''If You Want to Walk on Water, You've Got to Get Out of the Boat''. Another of his publications, ''The Life You've Always Wanted'', has sold more than 500,000 copies as of 2008. On August 13, 2012, Ortberg's book ''Who Is This Man?'' debuted at #3 on the New Release chart at Amazon.com.

Ortberg resigned from his position as pastor of Menlo Church in Summer 2020 after it was revealed that he had allowed one of his sons, John Ortberg III, to continue volunteering in working with minors at the church after the son had disclosed having experienced unwanted thoughts of attraction to minors. The allegations had arisen in late 2019, initially without identifying Ortberg's son as the volunteer in question. Provided by Wikipedia
