  • In this video, licensed counselor Bon Hamp talks about “DARVO” - a dynamic that consistently happens in abusive situations. In light of the recent church scandal at Gateway church with Ex-pastor Robert Morris , it stirs up the conversation of the abuser being protected for one reason or another - in this case because the Pastor was a brilliant communicator and drew thousands to the church. The individual (child) who is abused cannot be responsible for the years of abuse that takes place between that said child and an adult. The responsibility is on the adult to know better.

    A 12-year old child does not have the autonomy, maturity, or compatibility to consent to intimacy with an adult. If a child exhibits consent or coercion, it is false. Whether these conditions were present or absent, it doesn't matter. Robert was in full control of his circumstances and he made a choice to molest and damage a child. The burden of responsibility is fully on him.

      It is fully on God. Repentance is not person to person but person to God. No one can approve a relationship with a sixth grader.
      He said it was wrong. He called her a young lady. I have been called that through high school a young girl can be called a young lady but face it no one out two and two together
      God was not through with Him. He has guided him quite well. He is waiting for Cindy.
      This is God's house.
      Are there others. Who.have come forward?
      Pedophiles do not stop with one.
      This is God's decision.
      This woman has been through so much. She deserves peace.she deserves comforting. She deserves privacy. All this chatter about what she wore the first time is not necessary.
      Gateway is a huge church and from what I hear a family.They have nothing to do with this.
      Where are her parents? Did they sign a nondisclosure?

      Yep & I'm sure he groomed her. He told his wife he was counseling her. This is why people leave the church or want nothing to do with it period. These men hold too much power, preach deception & are put on pedestals. I had to deal w/ a narcissist pastor in a spiritually abusive church. He could have admit he had any issues afterc3 arrests, 2 for drunk driving. It was like leaving a cult. 15 years later, I'm still dealing w/the spiritual wound in my life & I have become very jaded. And when this comes up w/this guy & Tony Evans, Rod Parsley's cussing at his volunteers, TD Jake's schmoozing w/Diddy...I've had enough.

      Ah, there is a sin that leads to death & we are told not to bother praying for the person. And that God will be much more strict with teachers of religion. And Jesus says we are to remove the beam from our own eye before judging another. If the person will not repent in God's time, do not socialize with such a person and expose evil.

      I had heard Robert later lied about what her father said. As though Dad was pretty upset, but RM went around telling people the dad said it was okay for him to go back into ministry. This was right in the first week of it coming out.
      Whatever, I'm sorry, started at 12 years old, then four years. And then he cant pay just MEDICAL bills and insists on on an NDA.
      But he is worth $117,000,000??? It's not for a new car, or nice clothes or a house, but medical bills. He just doesn't care about being honest. He lied about her age, because he thought he could get away with it.

    I think there is also another option that has not been addressed.
    Pastor Morris was in a youth ministry in his early twenties..
    He wrote the blessed life and openly without mentioning names called her a young lady.
    He has stated that he got forgiveness from her parents who have remained nameless.
    They requested that he not preach again and to my knowledge which is superficial...has not been a youth pastor.
    He repented. He went through the restoration process and went on as a minister...
    God was not through with him.
    It appears to me that every minister is forgetting God forgave him .
    God is not changing His view. He brought him to zero a coupe of times to prove God was with Him.
    This is my biggest sticking point.
    He was and is forgiven.
    Do not get me wrong this was a baby. She did not have the education...the counselors or the maturity to work through this
    She still feels like she has not received adequate counseling and is asking for those sessions to be paid
    I do believe this to be true because she just gave social media a picture of herself at twelve and every inappropriate act that they committed. She just gave predator a playbook..How many other twelve year old girls will go through this because of the public scrutiny and the press.
    Clearly this will go to court and a settlement but this is turning into Stormy Daniels scenario...and not a twelve year old that still needs counseling and prayer.
