Read More »The founder of Hillsong, the international megachurch that became a magnet for millennial and superstar Christians, said he had had concerns for years about Carl Lentz, the pastor who was fired last year in part because of "moral failures." "Carl was Carl. He's a unique character. There's a lot of things I miss about Carl," Brian Houston, the founder and senior pastor of Hillsong Church, said in an interview with NBC's "TODAY" show that aired Wednesday. "Having said that, there were leadership issues that I believe included lying, included what I would call narcissistic behavior," Houston said. "I'd have to admit I've had concerns and many conversations over the years with Carl," he said. "I think there's a lot of things I should have known earlier, and hopefully moving forward we make sure we have far better systems in place and better accountability." Lentz was the lead pastor of Hillsong's New York branch. He became a pastor with the church, based in Sydney, after he launched its first U.S. location with Houston's son Joel in 2010, according to Religion News Service. About a decade into Lentz's tenure with the church, Houston announced in a statement that he had been fired "following ongoing discussions in relation to leadership issues and breaches of trust, plus a recent revelation of moral failures." "When you accept the calling of being a pastor, you must live in such a way that it honors the mandate. That it honors the church, and that it honors God. When that does not happen, a change needs to be made and has been made in this case to ensure that standard is upheld," he captioned a family photo that included his wife and three children. Houston said he learned about Lentz's infidelity in October. He was fired Nov. 4. Hillsong, which describes itself as a "contemporary Christian church," was founded in Australia in 1983. It has grown to include locations in more than 20 countries; its locations in the U.S. have included New York, New Jersey, California, Arizona, Georgia, Missouri, Nevada, Texas, Connecticut and Massachusetts. The Hillsong brand also includes a Grammy-winning record label, a training program and a television channel. The church is known for attracting a number of celebrity worshippers, including Justin Bieber and his wife, Hailey; Chris Pratt and his wife, Katherine Schwarzenegger; Kourtney Kardashian; and Kylie and Kendall Jenner. Asked on "TODAY" about Hillsong East's perceived practice of appealing to celebrity parishioners, like Bieber, Houston said "there's another side" to it.

"And look at Justin Bieber today. Anyone who's being fair could see a radical change," Houston said. "And so not everything about it is bad." Pressed further about whether celebrities got better treatment, Houston said, "I do think that we did allow a culture to develop where it was one rule for celebrities and a different rule for other people." After Lentz's departure, the pastors of two other locations resigned, and allegations of abuse and overworking of volunteers surfaced. "In my mind, if one person is treated badly, that's one too many," Houston said. "That, if it's true that people have been treated badly or that people have been bullied, I am 100 percent committed to moving that out of our church."
