Terry MacAlmon (born May 12, 1955) is an American Christian songwriter, recording artist and worship leader. He is the founder and president of New Glory International, worship ministry based in Dallas, Texas and leads worship in conferences, retreats, worship seminars, and churches in the United States and abroad.
MacAlmon announced in May 2008, in a letter to ministry supporters, that he was stepping down from his own ministry after having an extramarital affair, saying "I don't have a timeline as to if or when I will return to ministry, but I know I cannot go forward with my soul in this condition."[1] His former wife Greta said at the time that she had planned to file for legal separation, saying counseling and a restoration process had failed, but believing that he and his ministry would one day be restored.[2] The couple were divorced in April 2009, and MacAlmon returned to active ministry in 2010.[3]
