“I trust GFA leadership has already heard and prayed about your concerns. I know they are taking active steps to change some things, provide training in others and putting still other safeguards in place to help stop hurting people in the future.”

Please consider examining leadership and the claims against them, instead of simply trusting they are right no matter what. How serious of a report would you have to hear before you felt obligated to examine the evidence on your own to see if they are speaking truth?

The scripture commends the Bereans as having noble character because they did NOT trust what Paul said but examined it themselves to see if it was true. “Now these Jews were more noble than those in Thessalonica; they received the word with all eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see if these things were so.” (Acts 17:11)

When you read the testimonies you will see that KP has lied to the staff many times. Even Troy’s recent testimony describes how KP fired him and then lied about it to staff saying it was Troy’s decision, due to family problems, when in reality it was entirely GFA’s decision. Pat also lied to his staff about the reasons why Tammy was at home. There is a pattern of lying among leadership, and that is a mark of unrepentant sin.

And as for steps GFA is taking, we welcome them, but we have not heard of any of them. Have they publicly repented to those they have hurt? Have they admitted their guilt publicly in these five areas of concern? Have they worked to inform the donors of the true nature of Believer’s Church, stating that they were wrong to deceive? All of these things would show real change, and we hope they are forthcoming.
