How much do others need to know about other people? Well, ‘Pastor, author, and speaker, Bryan Loritts, last weekend took to Instagram and blamed bloggers and evangelicals for the tragic death of restored megachurch pastor, Darrin Patrick.
In a video that garnered more than 13,000 views, Loritts alleged that evangelicals “stink at grace.” And he implied that Patrick took his life because evangelicals, egged on by bloggers, couldn’t get “past” Patrick’s past.
“And it’s just heartbreaking,” Loritts said. “Like, there’s a whole industry out there—blogging, Christian media—that that exists and thrives off of fallen leaders. . . . When I heard that my friend died, my immediate thought was, ‘Evangelicals were an accomplice to his death.’”
However, Bryan Loritts, son of nationally recognized pastor, Crawford Loritts, has a vested interest in keeping bloggers and Christian media silent.
Four years ago, Loritts was accused of covering up sex crimes committed by his brother-in-law while both men were employed by a church in Memphis. And though Loritts has left that church, and tried to put the allegations behind him, major questions remain. And blogs like the Wartburg Watch, Watchkeep, and Wondering Eagle have continued to report on the issue, much to Loritts’s chagrin.’ https://julieroys.com/bryan-loritts-blames-bloggers-for-darrin-patricks-death-but-has-vested-interest-in-keeping-them-quiet/?mc_cid=51bbb41f10&mc_eid=b13d34ad49
The whole article is a MUST read and does show hypocrisy at work.
