Grace Grit Glory Show

Predator in the Pulpit


Listen Later

Seth Whorton joins Jennifer Weiss on the Grace Grit Glory Show to share his powerful testimony of healing and redemption. As a worship leader and minister in Texas, Seth opens up about being groomed and sexually abused by his youth pastor as a young teenager — and how that hidden wound quietly shaped his faith, his marriage, and his identity for decades.

In this vulnerable and important conversation, Seth and Jennifer discuss:

  • Growing up in the church and finding his calling in worship
  • How predators operate within ministry settings
  • The long-lasting effects of unaddressed childhood trauma
  • Why churches often cover up abuse — and what they should do instead
  • The difference between forgiveness and justice
  • How counseling and his wife Joy became instruments of God's grace
  • What he would say to others who have experienced abuse in the church

This is a raw, honest, and deeply hopeful episode about what it means to walk through the valley — and emerge with peace on the other side.

If this is your story, you are not alone. It was not your fault.
