@JayElleMyers Best we change shepherd to hireling.
Howerton is a brand.

There is plenty more coming out that I will eventually comment on, but for this topic, it’s out there, and I’m done. So this is all I’m going to say after reading all of the comments.
First of all, thank you to those who are supporting and encouraging me in this. This is not what I ever wanted to gain attention for.
There are lots of people on all the platforms framing this as if the biblical problem here is my reaction, when Scripture places the weight somewhere else entirely.
When harm happens, the burden in Scripture is always placed on the one in the position of power — never on the one who names the wound.
That’s not just my interpretation. That’s the consistent pattern of the prophets, Jesus, and the early church.
1. Scripture never rebukes the wounded for speaking plainly.
But it does rebuke those who minimize the wounded.
Paul says, “If one member suffers, all suffer together” (1 Corinthians 12:26).
Not: “Explain to the suffering member why they shouldn’t feel what they feel.”
Some of these responses have been the opposite of what Paul commands.
2. Scripture does not treat careless words from leaders as trivial.
Jesus says plainly:
“People will give account for every careless word they speak.” (Matthew 12:36)
He does not say, “unless the intent was good.”
He does not say, “unless the person is a pastor.”
He does not say, “unless someone else jokes about their own disability.”
For the people insisting intent erases impact… Jesus teaches the opposite.
3. Scripture does not call naming harm “division.”
Paul publicly confronted Peter when his behavior harmed others (Galatians 2:11–14).
Nathan confronted David.
John the Baptist confronted Herod.
The prophets confronted kings constantly.
Not one of them was told, “You’re just offended,” or “You’re stirring people up,” or “You should forgive and move on.”
Calling out harm is a biblical act, not a rebellious one.
4. Scripture does not permit partiality toward leaders.
James 2 condemns giving the powerful the benefit of the doubt while dismissing the vulnerable.
Many of the arguments I’ve seen rest on doing exactly that — assuming the best of the pastor and the worst of the person who spoke up.
That is the partiality Scripture forbids.
5. Forgiveness in Scripture never replaces accountability.
Jesus says, “If your brother sins, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him.” (Luke 17:3)
Rebuke comes first.
Repentance comes next.
Forgiveness follows.
So many are trying to skip the first two steps and demand the third.
6. Scripture does not command the harmed to “move on.”
But it does command leaders to be gentle, humble, and accountable.
It commands believers to “weep with those who weep” (Romans 12:15).
Not to lecture them about why they shouldn’t be weeping.
7. People have been accusing me of motives Scripture never warns against, while ignoring the ones it does.
You warn me about “being offended.”
Scripture warns leaders about wounding the flock (Ezekiel 34).
You warn me about “being a victim.”
Scripture warns against dismissing the cries of the vulnerable (Psalm 34:18).
You warn me about “stirring people up.”
Scripture warns against covering up wrongdoing (Ephesians 5:11).
You’re rebuking the wrong person. 🤷♀️
8. For those that keep saying the intent was harmless. Scripture never uses intent as the measure of righteousness… fruit is.
Jesus: “You will know them by their fruit.” (Matthew 7:16)
The fruit here was harm.
The fruit was dismissal.
The fruit was minimization.
The fruit was defensiveness.
Fruit reveals truth more than intent ever will.
9. You keep insisting this is about my spiritual condition. Scripture says the one who refuses correction reveals their own.
Proverbs 12:1:
“Whoever hates correction is stupid.”
Proverbs 9:8:
“Rebuke the wise and they will love you.”
You’re treating correction as an attack.
Scripture treats correction as love.
10. You keep saying I’m “staying offended.” Scripture calls what I’m doing something else entirely: bringing darkness into the light.
Ephesians 5:11:
“Expose the deeds of darkness.”
Not: “Keep quiet so no one feels uncomfortable.”
So the real issue is that some of you are asking me to carry a burden Scripture never places on me, and you’re refusing to place the burden where Scripture actually puts it.
Not on the person who spoke up.
Not on the one who was wounded.
Not on the one who followed Matthew.
Not on the one who told the truth.
Scripture places the weight on the shepherd.
On the teacher.
On the one with the microphone.
On the one whose words shape a flock.
Josh may not have been aiming at me, but I certainly got hit on the way to the target. 🎯🤷♀️
