In an age of instant media, public exposure, and viral accusations, the Church must recover a biblical and ecclesial protocol for processing allegations with integrity, discernment, and justice.
In this Leadership Table teaching, Joseph Mattera outlines a scriptural framework for handling accusations in a way that protects the innocent, confronts genuine sin, and preserves the witness of the Church. Drawing from passages such as 1 Timothy 5:19 and Matthew 18, this episode explores the balance between due process and pastoral care, transparency and restraint, accountability and restoration.
When accusations are mishandled, trust erodes and unity fractures. When they are processed biblically, truth prevails, victims are protected, and the integrity of Christ's Church is strengthened.
This teaching is especially vital for pastors, elders, and leaders who must navigate difficult situations with wisdom and courage.
👉 Listen and learn how to uphold both justice and grace in the household of God.
