To every single “Spirit Filled” leader in the USA:
I’ve heard you boast for YEARS about your special revelation—Strategies from Heaven! Prophetic Utterance! Divine Wisdom! Apostolic Authority! Some of you claim to see secret sin!
How is it then, that in two decades, I have yet to hear of even ONE case where you have foreseen and then correctly handled clergy sexual abuse?
Tell me, what good is it to me—a woman who was sexually abused as a child—if you hear from heaven, but you do not hear me?
What good is it if you have the faith to move mountains, but are unmoved by the cries of the broken? Who does that faith serve?
What good is your prophetic utterance, if you refuse to be a voice for voiceless? You are so quick to speak on things outside of your influence, but when it comes to men you share stages with, you are SILENT in the face of abuse. You take your check and shut your eyes as the men you share stages with prey on the very ones Jesus came to redeem. When you *finally* speak, it’s when our own throats are so hoarse that we no longer sing.
Tell me, and every victim of abuse: what good is your leadership, exactly, to me? Surely when Jesus said “Peter, feed my sheep,” he meant for you to nurture and protect—not fatten them for slaughter.
Here is what I’d like to know:
1. As a minister, are you trained in trauma informed care for victims disclosing abuse to you? Are you willing to do that?
2. What protective policies do you currently have in place?
3. Are you open to having those evaluated by an expert like GRACE?
4. What is your policy on ministering alongside ministers with current allegations of sexual or spiritual abuse?
5. Who is on your board?
6. Who are you accountable to?
7. What does financial transparency look like in your ministry?
These questions every single minister should be able to answer—or should be engaging with deep and honest assessment, at minimum.
“He who is faithful in a very little is also faithful in much, and he who is unfaithful in very little is also unfaithful in very much.”
To me, it’s very simple: God wouldn’t not give apostolic authority to the church if it cannot even correctly steward the authority it already has. So if you want to “be great in the Kingdom,” learn to serve the ones given to you to protect.
Show me “the goodness of God in the land of the living,” because I no longer believe that I will see it from you—that is why so many of us are deconstructing. We aren’t leaving. We’re fainting.

🧶 1. I want to highlight & share a screenshot re: #DwellingPlaceAnaheim's lack of accountability on the board/HR. During my time as a pastor under #AlanScott, especially towards the end (June 2022), I went to our HR / board member Greg Scherer and complained to him about

Where are you on Mike Bickle, @BethelRedding? Why would God entrust the “Seven Mountains” of influence to you, if you refuse to use your influence to advocate for victims of abuse?
You didn’t even deal with a known sexual predator in your midst, despite multiple people notifying you. His SON had to do it, and you only acted when it went viral.

A month ago I sent the following email to Bill Johnson, and Bethel church leadership.

Isn’t Riddle playing your conference?
Tell him to leave his gift at the altar and go back to make this right.

@jesusculture @BethelRedding @TheJesusImage And @IamRickJoyner — you turned a blind eye KNOWING Todd Bentley would reoffend.
How is it that NO ONE in any of these movements has addressed the horrific implications of that? Why is no one loudly decrying Rick?
What good are ANY of you?

@jesusculture @BethelRedding @TheJesusImage @IamRickJoyner The fact that I’m out here shows how badly I’d like to believe that the church could be, truly, the kind of embodied love that pours itself out on behalf of the broken—the very body of Christ.

@jesusculture @BethelRedding @TheJesusImage @IamRickJoyner You say it’s the end of the age—GOOD.
Tell me: When Jesus returns, what sort of faith will he find on the earth?
What is it GOOD FOR?
WHO is it good for?
It sure wasn’t for me.
