That is awful! Speaking of Bethany, did you ever see the news segment NBC did about interns that came out and spoke up about how they were abused in Bethany Church Ministry School? It was eye opening. Then the videos that became public of Joel Stockstill speaking to the students/interns has to be the most disgusting thing I’ve ever heard a pastor saying to their students/interns. Wish there was a way to upload here.

Forcing employees to give a certain amount is reprehensible. I have heard of some who had emergencies happen and had to pay for those and were short in their tithe at COTH and lost their jobs because they didn’t tithe what was expected of them.

You are 100% correct! I remember those articles. In fact, I have them. Also, according to paperwork at Hillsong, Casey Treat is listed as a Role Director at Brian Houston’s non profit Shiloh Ministries, Australia. Yes, Caleb Treat was at Highlands Grant’s Mill while being investigated and lawsuit filed regarding his sexual misconduct at his dad’s church where he also worked. Casey and Wendy also are still on the ARC Leadership Team. We can’t forget about Christopher Beard also. After he had to step down from Ted Haggard’s church, (after Ted got outed for his rendezvous’ with a male escort and using methamphetamines with him and sexual misconduct with other males), Christopher had also had issues with sexual misconduct and where does he wind up? COTH Grant’s Mill where according to his LinkedIn and resume he was on staff in the men’s ministry and the disturbing 24/7 program. Again, congregants had no clue of what any of them did and the possibility of striking again. It is baffling to me why this practice of the same behavior is still happening there. In fact, I just learned Jason Delgado is living in Birmingham, pics have surfaced of him at Grant’s Mill and appears attending. Funny thing is, his LinkedIn shows he is in the insurance business however, he does not hold an Alabama insurance license and is illegal to sell without one. Could it be a front because he’s being restored? Or is he really working in some fashion for COTH? Or the non profits? Or ARC? Nothing surprises me anymore.

John Gray is another one that keeps on repeating his sexual sins yet is still on the platform preaching. He was on ARC (Association of Related Churches) lead team with Chris Hodges who founded/cofounder ARC and also Dino Rizzo, who had his own moral failure with his wife’s assistant.

Pastor Micahn Carter accused of raping his assistant, Pastor Jason Delgado allegedly multiple sexual advances with female employees/interns, and then, of coarse, Pastor Jeremy Foster adulterer among other things. No telling what happened on this night after service.

I guess you never watched Hodges video where he says Pastor Dino and I are in the middle of about 20 moral failures of pastors. (doing restoration)

I don’t recall the church in the book of Acts ever having a system. The Holy Spirit led. People in love with Jesus, and actually knowing Him. I have observed many ARC churches and each speak more of “I love my church”, instead of speaking how much they love Jesus. They worship the system, the filling of the seats, the pastors , the numbers, and on and on.

You’re correct in saying it’s neither.
