He broke his silence.
After over a week of silence regarding serious allegations made by former members of his ministry organizations, worship leader and missionary Sean Feucht broke his silence in a video response, labeling the claims as a spiritual attack. Speaking on YouTube, Feucht acknowledged his desire to defend himself but said he was advised by his legal and spiritual counsel to remain cautious, citing potential legal ramifications.
The accusations against Feucht were compiled by former ministry workers and published on a website called “Truth and Freedom Stories.” The site alleges longstanding ethical, financial, and spiritual misconduct connected to Feucht and his four religious organizations. The accusers—former directors and staff affiliated with ministries like Burn 24/7, Light a Candle, and Let Us Worship—claimed to have witnessed mismanagement, spiritual manipulation, and other troubling practices during their time with the organizations.
Feucht dismissed many of the individuals behind the allegations as former volunteers who were let go years ago due to moral issues. He asserted that the financials of his ministries are sound, overseen by professionals and compliant with IRS standards. While acknowledging that he couldn’t share many details due to legal reasons, he emphasized his confidence in the integrity of his team and accounting practices.
The accusers, however, raised concerns about the ministries’ financial transparency, citing a sudden surge in revenue and a reclassification to church status that limits public reporting. They also questioned Feucht’s personal real estate holdings and alleged issues such as misuse of donations, failure to disclose international operations, and spiritual coercion. They are calling for an independent investigation into the finances and governance of his ministries.
Feucht responded by rejecting the claims, suggesting the accusers lack firsthand knowledge of the ministries’ current operations. He attributed the allegations to bitterness and a broader spiritual battle, urging his followers to remain focused on their mission. Reaffirming his belief in the righteousness of his work, Feucht insisted that the funds donated were used appropriately and maintained that the accusations would not deter him from his spiritual calling.
