Sex abuse, hate of others and politics has hurt the American Church very badly. Sharon and I know this! We hear it and we see it as we travel. Jesus Wept.
Way, way too many sex crimes in the American Church……it is out of control and doing great damage to the Church. Many are being chased away by the Church. Horrible! Jesus wept. George Barna: “People have become more selfish, churches have become less influential, pastors have become less Bible-centric”

Greatest failure of ther American Church in the last decade ot two, is not carrying out The Great Commission! The late great Pastor Don Kimbro, warned me about this years ago! It is happening. Great failure! Some Churches have not baptized anyone for years! Many have become ‘coffee clubs.’ Of a Church is carrying out the COMMAND of JESUS, they would be baptizing people every week. THE GREAT COMMISSION is a COMMAND! NOT A SUGGESTION! Why Churches Talk the Great Commission But Don’t Do It
Be the CHURCH OF ACTS! NOT WALLS!

Definition of Sexual Misconduct From Inspired Walk
Sexual misconduct by a church leader refers to any sexualized behavior that occurs within the church context and where one party has more power or influence than the other.
The perpetrator can be anyone in a leadership position from a pastor, priest, counselor, elder, youth leader, deacon or Sunday school teacher.
Sexual misconduct can take many forms: from a married leader being verbally flirtatious with another woman to a situation involving physical contact.
In the Biblical context: when a church leader engages in adultery, rape, fornication, homosexuality or any form of sexual abuse including unwanted flirtatious advances or innuendos, this can be identified as sexual misconduct. More Here
