Summary
In this episode, Tim delves into the case against John MacArthur, a well-known pastor and theologian. He discusses MacArthur's views on slavery, and highlights MacArthur's legacy of protecting men in his church who have been accused of sexual abuse. Tim presents evidence of MacArthur's knowledge of the abuse and his failure to take appropriate action. This conversation exposes the disturbing actions and responses of John MacArthur and Grace Community Church (GCC) in cases of child abuse within their congregation. The chapters cover MacArthur's dismissive response to Wendy's accusations, the confrontation and revelation of Paul Guay's abuse, GCC's inadequate response to the abuse, MacArthur's involvement and contradictory statements, MacArthur's public shaming of Eileen Gray, the elders' dismissal of Gray's abuse allegations, David Gray's conviction and MacArthur's support, Alistair Begg's controversial advice and MacArthur's response, and the lack of accountability for MacArthur's actions.
