Second high profile leader in these circles this year that has been revealed to be a predator. I've never heard either of them speak, but have seen him as a speaker for many conferences and teen camps. At some point, this fellowship needs to have a hard look at how they elevate men, and work on better accountability for those they deem as "leaders."
Who was the first?

HBBC - Official Announcement

IFB Bible Baptist Church Of Stillwater, OK. Recently announced the cancellation of the upcoming annual Men’s Advance Conference.
Wayne Hardy was the senior pastor of Bible Baptist Church in Stillwater, Oklahoma, where he has served since March 1999.
On Wednesday, April 22, 2026, the church he pastored read his resignation letter, which stated that he had been unfaithful to his wife, resulting in his disqualification from ministry. (Adultery, Hebrews 13:4,
1 Timothy 3:2, Exodus 20:14) This announcement was made publicly to the church, and it is important to acknowledge that this church did the right thing in handling the situation. They did not attempt to cover it up, but instead addressed it openly, demonstrating a level of transparency and accountability that must be recognized.
He is no longer listed on the church staff website.

I subscribe to emails from Church Leaders website. There is frequent news about such misbehaviors.

It is very disturbing to see the terrible fall into the worst kinds of sin by many ministry leaders and pastors who were loved and respected by their peers and the congregations they served.
The body of Christ must work a lot harder, and exercise greater scrutiny, to prevent this from happening. Too many times it is covered up.
