In this video, I break down four major Baptist church scandals from July 8–15, 2025: a Harris Creek Baptist Church pastoral resident arrested for distributing Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM); LGBTQ+ protesters rallying outside Sure Foundation Baptist Church in Indianapolis after sermons calling for violence against LGBTQ+ people; the indictment of John and Kathy Radcliff for sexually abusing six children; and First Baptist Church of Hammond, IN, featuring controversial pastor Tim Ruhl – despite his alleged history of covering up abuse – as a youth conference speaker.
Viewer discretion advised due to sensitive topics.

0:00.0 | Hey, everybody, welcome back to the Preacher Boys podcast. My name is Eric Skritsky, and I grew up |
0:05.1 | within the independent fundamental Baptist movement. And as a former fundamentalist, I shed light on |
0:10.2 | the dark side of the church from the pulpit to the pew. Last week, I broke down three stories |
0:15.0 | relating to scandals in Baptist churches that took place between July 1st and July 7th, 2025. And today I'm diving deep into |
0:23.6 | four headlines that broke between July 8th and July 15th, 2025. I do want to make a note here |
0:30.5 | that some of these stories refer to charges for possession or distribution of child pornography. |
0:36.4 | I personally prefer to use the term child sexual abuse |
0:39.2 | material or CSAM as it more accurately reflects the abusive and exploitative nature of this |
0:45.1 | content. However, I still will occasionally use the term child pornography in this video |
0:50.4 | when referencing specific legal terminology like a charge, or I'm specifically quoting |
0:56.3 | other sources in order to maintain accuracy and context. With that disclaimer out of the way, |
1:02.4 | let's go ahead and move into the rest of the video. On July 10, 2025, a pastoral care resident |
1:09.2 | was arrested for distributing child sexual abuse material. |
1:13.0 | Garrett English graduated from Clemson University with a Bachelor's of Science in Criminal Justice |
1:17.9 | and Police Science in 2022. He took the next year and worked full-time as a preschool teacher |
1:23.9 | for Little Lights Learning Center in Clemson, South Carolina. And in |
1:28.3 | 2024, he returned to college, this time attending Liberty University, to study church planning, |
1:34.2 | while simultaneously interning at Heartfire Missions. Finally, in August of 2024, English became a |
1:41.1 | pastoral care resident at Harris Creek Baptist Church in Waco, Texas. |
1:45.8 | Romans 323. It says, for all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. |
1:51.0 | On July 10, 2025, he was booked into the McClennan County Jail on two counts of possession of child pornography with intent to promote. |
1:59.7 | This is a third-degree felony in the state of Texas |
