Sarah Davis, CEO of Ravi Zacharias International Ministries and oldest daughter of the late apologist, has apologized for her initial reaction to the allegations of her fatherâs sexual misconduct, admitting she made âserious errors that only furthered deep wounds.â
Her statement elicited a response from her brother, who claimed that she is not speaking for the family.Â
âTo the women who are victims of my father s abuse, I think of you every single day. I am utterly devastated, she said in a video message this week. I am sorry that I did not see you. I am sorry that you were made powerless and rendered voiceless. When you did speak up, I didn t believe you, and I m deeply sorry for this.
An apologist who worked closely with Ravi Zacharias and co-authored a book with him said he was deceived by the late apologist who was exposed for committing several kinds of sexual abuse following an independent investigation released earlier this year.

Sarah Davis has broken months of silence with a video apologizing to victims of her father s abuse, as well as to staff and supporters of the ministry. She also called out to other abusers to come forward and confess their sins.
Davis is the eldest daughter of Ravi Zacharias and was named the CEO of Ravi Zacharias International Ministries in 2019. She has been publicly silent since the ministry published a report confirming that accusations of sexual assault and rape brought against the apologist were true. We have committed these months since the report to learning, to private reconciliation, and to restitution, Davis says in a video posted to the ministry s social media accounts. And for this reason, I have not wanted to address publicly what has been happening in recent months or what we ve been journeying through as a ministry.
