Prominent worship leader Sean Feucht has publicly claimed that his recent worship event was disrupted by a ‘witch’ who began “cursing at the top of her lungs,” but video evidence of the incident shows something very different.
Feucht, who was recently accused by multiple former senior ministry leaders and employees of being guilty of fraud, embezzlement, abuse, and chronic exaggeration, made the comments on X regarding the incident at his Let Us Worship Australian tour.
He later added the witch was “nonstop cursing us the whole time”
However, Hillsong Accountability (HA) posted a video of the incident and nothing of the sort seems to have happened, including “cursing at the top of her lungs.”
Instead, when Feucht was sarcastically mimicking people who insist that Christians are controversial and dangerous, she piped up “Hey, only when they spread hate. Only when they spread hate.”
That was it. That was the extent of it. HA offers as commentary:
Sean claimed a “witch” tried to disrupt his Sydney worship event at hillsong chapel but the reply under his own post tells a different story.
A woman challenged him verbally. No curses. No “demonic filth.” No supernatural showdown.
Just a person calling out behaviour she disagreed with.
When leaders exaggerate ordinary criticism into spiritual warfare, it stops being truth and starts being theatre. And when the only “evidence” is a tweet and a dramatic story, it’s fair to question the narrative.
This wasn’t a witch. It was a woman with a voice.
The only magic here is how fast a simple disagreement got spun into a demon story.
They also note that Feucht’s time in Australia was beset by a lack of interest.
Side note: he planned to have event at Hillsong’s 600 seat epicentre venue, but ticket sales were so low they moved to the chapel where 60-80 ppl showed up (about 30-40% of its 200 seat capacity).
