279 - My Father, A Pastor and Predator (with Jimmy Hinton)

Jimmy Hinton’s life calling is to bring awareness to sexual abuse, especially on predators who thrive in churches.  This was Jimmy’s life story, his father revered for decades by his congregants while he was secretly taking advantage of many children in the flock for 27 years.  Jimmy and even his mom was unaware until later in life when his little sister came forward with the abuse done to her, at the hand of her father.  When this story broke, it was picked up by CNN.  Hear Jimmy's heart-breaking recollection and how he currently processes the relationship he has with his dad.  What is it about church cultures that make it so easy for abusers to abuse?  What is it about “blind sheep” who go to the defense on behalf of these predators?  Important questions that need to be processed and answered.  With tons of research, Jimmy lets us in to the mind of an abuser.  Joey also shares a time in which he was being "groomed" by his high school teacher.  

 Friend of this podcast, Derek Minor, joins us at beginning of episode to talk prophesy and “Christian wealth.”
