Breaking: John MacArthur Restructures GCC in Light of Scandal, Brings on Beth Moore as ‘Consultant’ + Exclusive Images
In memos obtained exclusively by Protestia, Pastor John Macarthur of Grace Community Church is set to announce to the congregation this coming Sunday that the elders have approved a restructuring plan for the California megachurch. This is the result of hemorrhaging membership, plummeting giving, and widespread walkouts that have been going on at the Master’s Seminary over the last two years, on account of investigative journalist Julie Roys’ articles detailing the famous coverup and complicity in child abuse by the church. (see Here, Here) for more information.
Taking place at a members meeting following the last service, MacArthur is revealing that over the last few months, membership is down nearly 85%, giving down 95% and that over 1400 students at their seminary engaged in a walk-out holding signs and marching around the administrative building, chanting “Ay-Oh, Ay-Oh, John MacArthur’s got to go!” Reportedly, there hasn’t been a salvation or baptism- believer or baby- at the church since the first article dropped.
While MacArthur will be going on Rachel Maddow’s MSNBC show on a mini-media blitz to try to undo some of the damage and detail the changes happening at the church, we can confirm that over three dozen elders have resigned. One of Roy’s casualties will be longtime mainstay Phil Johnson, who tendered his resignation at the beginning of the week and who has been a bitter foe of Roys.
He shared on his Tiktok account that it was a long time coming, and that he is moving to Bethel Church to sit under the tulelage of Bill Johnson, with hopes of receiving the baptism of the Holy Spirit and the power and fire it brings.
In what is perhaps the most drastic turn of events, the senior leadership team brought on several PR consultants and “church culture auditors” to review how the breakdown occurred, including Beth Moore herself.
Given broad powers, and perhaps enjoying a taste of irony, Beth Moore has been tasked with reviewing the harmful effects that complementarianism has had on the church. The rest of the team is made up primarily of the group that just concluded investigating Hillsong. Reportedly, they’ve been there for several days already behind the scenes and already found several instances of the inevitable culture of fear and silence that the patriarchy brings.
A source close to Moore told us she only agreed to help and put herself back in the public eye and open herself to critique on the condition that she’d also be able to include a few of her books in the GCC library, get a snapshot of her and MacArthur (which we’ve obtained above) and preach the next Mothers Day sermon, laughingly remarking at one point:
“Five years John MacArthur told me to ‘go home’. Who could have thought back then that he’d meant his own?!”
While we at Protestia understand the pressure that exists when an article so universally acclaimed, immaculately researched, and profusely praised can ruin 40 years of ministry and cause unmitigated chaos within a church, grinding them to a standstill and causing all their supporters to turn on them, we would encourage MacArthur and the elders at GCC not to give in to the demands of these theological harpies.
The elders will reconvene on April 1st to share their findings.

When Roys discovers that MacArthur didn’t know about any sexual abuse at the time of the so-called “shaming” in 2002, will she publicly repent? Or will she cover up her sins?
Since she’s being made privy to the private information pertaining to the Grays, she is going to have to report something. If she doesn’t, she’ll be complicit in a cover-up of her own, one way or the other – her sins or someone else’s. She should know if MacArthur is as evil as she has made him out to be, he wouldn’t have invited her in, lest he open himself up to criminal prosecution. As far as that goes, she should also have had sense enough to know that if he did anything wrong back then, the church would’ve ousted him 20 years ago – otherwise all 1000+ members of the church would be in on a vast conspiracy. Even with respect to over-disciplining, which was known in 2002, and for which both Eileen and David confessed, if it had risen to the level of abuse, they would’ve all seen the physical evidence.
If I had to guess, I’d say she’s far too proud to ever publicly repent of bearing false witness, and to make any effort to set the record straight, lest she harm her big time “journalism” career. She will likely remain silent. And that silence will speak volumes.

Sorry bud, you have to prove your accusations. Screaming “Baloney!” every five minutes doesn’t cut it.
Baloney!
Look on the bright side. You’ll always have the free coffee mug.
You had me until I looked at the calendar and figured out what day it was.
NICE!!!
This article is factually correct and true in every respect, thanks for your candor. Yes indeed even the perfect can be wrong at times and religion forbid even admit it. May be the first time but hey you gotta start somewhere.
Who’s talking. You can’t even admit 2002 came before 2004.
It’s an April Fool’s joke folks
No, it’s no joke. It’s 100% true. Has protestia ever lied to you? Okay maybe just a little bit but this article is simply pretending to be parody when in fact it’s stating the obvious truth about JM’s camp and his subservient lemming followers.
If that many people are walking out on John MacArthur’s Church it seems to me that the great apostasy is starting!
Bye John!👹
Beth Moore?!!
Are you crazy?
April Fools! This does, however, highlight a problem for all mega-churches due to size. The big crowd will tend to follow the culture instead of trying to lead culture in a better direction. Mega churches will all eventually drift doctrinally down, spare the pain and stop at a membership of 600. After that divide into a new church plus the old one, rinse and repeat.
Hahaha, what a fake picture. I didn’t realize this site was satire. I was getting mad until I saw that. Hilarious
Hilarious cause it’s inavertenly true
Meth Boor to the rescue. What’s her cut $$ in the deal? Lmao total meltdown. Joel Osteen handled a crisis better
I had to triple check that I was still on the Protestia website and not the Babylon bee!!
The ABSOLUTE “dumbest” April FOOLS joke…
It would’ve been an even bigger and better April fools joke if you said MacArthur had announced he was converting to the church of Rome and giving up his post at GCC.
Your attempt at a April Fools joke for such a serious subject is in need of writing a piece asking for forgiveness of your readers and John MacArthur. As you can tell by many of the comments, this article was NOT FUNNY!
Aren’t you a Pastor? Do you not have anything to do? Take off that stupid hat, quit trying to grow your audience with cutesy videos (like all of the other show-biz “preachers”) and tend to your flock.
if everything Julie Roy says about the king err I mean John Mac is wrong. then why such a drop in everything. And since Beth Moore per the king err JM is in sin why would he ask her to come by and help??????? The problem with the evangelical industrial complex is its steady flow of “godly men” being nothing more than malignant narcissists ruling a fiefdom and not a church and a flock that put more faith in the King vs The real KING. Our faith is real simple. Jesus was born, he spent several years teaching people what God wants vs man then died on the cross for our salvation. The evangelicals going back to 300AD (and add the popes) have taken something that simple and created hundred’s of denominations all saying “we got the right bead on salvation and not you”. Think of all the OPINIONS on scripture vs my bro Jesus talked about. the poor and widows and what will happen if you hurt children. Now compare that to the Kings that stands in pulpits each Sunday and remind us “I the pastor” is all knowing NOT you serfs. See they have become self appointed Kings and they keep there princes close to them and as we know, nobody argues with the king.
May we be reminded that early Christians met in homes. There were no pastors “leading” the gatherings. Actually, people, usually men hmmm, would volunteer to read from scripture. John Macarthur should feel goose bumps about that. Remember Christ as a child being “found” in the temple, much to his parents relief. I am 83 and miss the good ole days of true church. One cannot attend a service without hearing, money, money, whose got the money? You want to be blessed and so forth. I received continued infeeling of the Holy Spirit lying in my bed in the middle of the night, after being prayed for at church earlier. God bless, Linda
