0:00.0 | You're listening to the microversion of the Savage Love Cast at Savage.loaf. |
0:23.4 | A youth pastor in Wisconsin was found guilty of five felony counts last week. |
0:27.9 | I'm not going to say, but I will say that they're exactly what you think they are. |
0:35.1 | A youth pastor in Texas arrested last week for online solicitation. |
0:39.1 | I'm not going to say what he was soliciting for or whether the person he was soliciting that from |
0:45.1 | was old enough to drink or vote or drive because you know or you guessed and guessed correctly. |
0:53.7 | A youth pastor in rural Ohio was arrested last week. All this happened in just the last week |
1:00.0 | for exactly what you might think he was arrested for as was another youth pastor in Wisconsin |
1:05.4 | and a youth pastor and his wife in North York, Ontario. And a youth pastor in Florida wanted to mix |

1:53.0 | wondering, listeners, why it took the FBI more than a year to arrest ethridge, it was because they |
1:58.4 | only got the tip from someone at the Bible college. Ethridge was attending in Colorado Springs. |
2:04.0 | They only got that tip last week. So yeah, looks like maybe the January 6th hearings are having |
2:11.1 | an impact. Anyway, those were the youth pastors in the news over the last week. I don't have enough |
2:16.4 | time at the top of this week's show or any week's show to include all the pastors, senior pastors, |
2:21.8 | and church elders who got arrested or charged or sentenced, but for the eleventh billionth time, |
