Senior Pastor of Palm View Baptist Church, Jonathan Elwing, Arrested For Possessing Child Sex Abuse Material
Yesterday, detectives with the Manatee County Sheriff’s Office Internet Crimes Against Children arrested Jonathan Edward Elwing, senior pastor of Palm View Baptist Church, for possessing child pornography.
On Thursday, Law enforcement received a tip that the pedophile pastor used cryptocurrency to buy child porn online. They acquired a warrant and executed it the very next day, seizing his devices and, so far, finding at least four images of child porn on his cell phone.
Prior to being arrested, Elwing, 43, resigned from Palm View church. A quick perusal of his social media accounts shows that his church was enrolled in Founders Ministries church search*, and Elwing would frequently share quotes from Voddie Baucham, Jonathan Edwards, Matt Chandler, and Mark Driscol, as well as posting quotes likes these in the days before his arrest.
*Note: Founders Ministries explicitly says that it does not vet churches who voluntarily list themselves on the Founders church search.
Elwing is married with four children, including one he recently adopted, and it appears he has absolutely destroyed their lives and turned them upside down.
The church has not yet released a statement.
Please keep the family and his church in your prayers.

I feel bad for his family, congregation, and the body of Christ in general as another religious leader is outed as a hypocrite.
