Update on Potters Field Closure
When Rob McCoy took over the disgraced Potters Field Ministries from Mike and Pam Rozell, he thought the liquidation of the ministry assets would take a couple of months.
Now, he hopes it’s all done by the end of the year.
What McCoy did not anticipate was that the Montana Attorney General would step in and halt the sales of the properties so the state could do its own investigations.
The AG has now released it’s hold and one of the properties has sold and the others are back on the block.
After all the debts are cleared there should be money to do an official audit and provide financial assistance to the interns whose stories have been printed here.
The last interns who were overseas are now back home and are living with members of McCoy’s Godspeak church congregation while they reorient themselves.
The question now is how to legally and fairly distribute the proceeds of the asset sales to those who both need and deserve it.
That, (as McCoy told me, and I concur) will take the wisdom of Solomon.
My suggestion is that (once the legal ramifications are understood and complied with) that a committee formed by former interns and trusted counsel oversee that distribution.
I have asked that the process be both public and transparent.
There is an urgency here…many of these former interns are hurting badly financially, spiritually, and emotionally.
On the legal front, attorneys have told me a lawsuit is coming…but it’s been coming for a long time without arriving.
The other frequently asked question is “whither the Rozell’s?”
Depends on who you ask…
McCoy says that he has asked them to stay silent as they go through a season of reflection and repentance.
Other sources say that they are doing little of either.
That will have to wait for resolution…the major task at hand is getting help for those former interns.
That is my main priority and I trust it is Rob McCoy’s as well…and then putting Whitefish, Montana in his rear view mirror…
Michael, thank you for your faithful perseverance in this very difficult matter. I hope that your continuing to expose sin brings about true repentance and fear of God.
Your “ministry” reminds me of the prophets of old:) Keep up the good work!
Thanks, Pastor J…we know how those prophets ended up.. 🙂
Yes, we do Michael… Eternally memorialized in God’s Book ?
Pastor J. Have you seen anyone repent of anything that has been exposed on this blog? I personally have seen no one repent. Not that they haven’t but there hasn’t been a story reported here that I recall. Perhaps you are aware of some good news you can share with us?
Its never happened. Period.
[I’m sure PFM and The Rozells follow these posts. So this is to them.]
“Either you truly realize the harm, extreme hurt, and spiritual damage you’ve caused to your fellow Christians – God’s children and The Body of Christ as a whole, as well as your gross misrepresentation of our Savior, or sadly, you don’t.
And If not, then this horrible tragedy and need for true repentance and real brokenness from you goes far, far deeper than your pride, narcissism, finances, and ‘life going on as usual.’ For many are still suffering from your abuse, in silence from you. This is not about your posturing, or being on stage, or presenting an image. But real trench Christianity. To see if what you preached, taught, and proclaimed all these years is real, or was just “the greatest show on earth’ To ask, who were you really doing all this for? To see if this Jesus you say you’ ve been following and proclaiming , is actually real in your lives.
Someone recently said, ‘Your apology and restitution needs to be as loud as your disrespect was.” You might want to read that again. Maybe several times for they are wise words to be applied. And not for show. The Body of Christ will know if it’s truly genuine or not, or simply just another stage performance. It was with Zaccheus.
So, everyone is waiting. Now months later, still waiting. With our wondering is protecting the ‘image’ of Michael and Pam more important than that of The Gospel and of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ? [The same goes for CCA and Don McClure.] The real question is, what IS really most important to you?
For we are admonished, “when you’ve done it unto the least of these, you’ve done this to Me…”
