In this powerful and deeply personal episode, I open up about a difficult but necessary topic: church scandals. As a Christian who loves the Church and believes in the gospel of Jesus Christ, facing stories of moral failure, abuse, corruption, and cover-ups within church leadership has been heartbreaking and faith-shaking. But instead of turning away or shutting down, I chose to lean in—to listen, to learn, and to wrestle with the hard questions.

This isn’t a hit piece. It’s not a deconstruction manifesto or a defense of everything that’s gone wrong. It’s a Christian perspective rooted in faith, Scripture, and a desire to grow in spiritual maturity. I share what I’ve learned from pastors, victims, theologians, and former insiders—and what the Holy Spirit is teaching me about humility, justice, and the true mission of the Church.

Whether you're someone who’s been personally hurt by the Church, someone who's struggling with their faith in the wake of scandal, or someone who wants to better understand how to navigate these conversations with grace and truth, this episode is for you.

🙏 My Prayer for You: That this episode meets you in a place of honesty, brings clarity to confusion, and points you back to the heart of Jesus—even through the messiness of human failure.
