Feucht faces ongoing lawsuits alleging mismanagement of ministry funds and mistreatment of volunteers. The main incident involves Feucht posting a WhatsApp screenshot claiming he received a threatening message about "Hindu extremists and Muslim radicals" targeting his family due to criticism from Mike Winger and Julie Roys. However, technical evidence reveals this was likely fabricated: - Double check marks only appear on messages you send, not receive - The message color was artificially grayed out, likely hiding the green color of sent messages - The emoji appears unusually drab, suggesting color manipulation This follows other incidents where Feucht has embellished persecution narratives, including calling a gender reveal smoke bomb a "firebomb" and labeling a protester who said "only when they spread hate" as a "witch" who was "cursing at the top of her lungs." Baker argues this represents a broader problem in church leadership, where influential figures maintain platforms despite evidence of dishonesty because they provide political access or align with preferred narratives. ## 🗒️ Notes #### ⏱️ [00:00](https://youtu.be/-2aFU9R0-WQ?t=0) — [H1] Sean Feucht fabrication investigation - Key idea: Baker investigates whether Sean Feucht fabricated a threatening message to fake persecution - Evidence: "Did Sean Foy just make up a post in order to lie about Mike Winger and Julie Roy's because he's being held accountable?" #### ⏱️ [01:30](https://youtu.be/-2aFU9R0-WQ?t=90) — [H2] Feucht's background and controversies - Key idea: Feucht represents the merger of MAGA politics and charismatic Christianity - Evidence: "Several figures occupying that space, but Sean Fu has been out front since 2020 with his lettuce worship" #### ⏱️ [03:45](https://youtu.be/-2aFU9R0-WQ?t=225) — [H3] Current lawsuit allegations - Key idea: Feucht faces allegations of using ministry funds for personal enrichment - Evidence: "Using ministry funds that came in to him for the purpose of doing more ministry and rather than doing more ministry, he's now using that to enrich himself" #### ⏱️ [05:20](https://youtu.be/-2aFU9R0-WQ?t=320) — [H1] Church leaders compromising for power access - Key idea: Leaders platform questionable figures when it provides political access - Evidence: "Landon Shot endorsing fullthroatedly endorsing Paula White... through Paula White, it seems he gets access to the president" #### ⏱️ [07:15](https://youtu.be/-2aFU9R0-WQ?t=435) — [H2] Analysis of the fake WhatsApp message - Key idea: Technical analysis reveals the message was sent by Feucht, not received - Evidence: "Double check mark only appears when you are the sender of a message... it's totally grayed out" #### ⏱️ [09:30](https://youtu.be/-2aFU9R0-WQ?t=570) — [H1] Mike Winger's detailed response - Key idea: Winger provides forensic analysis proving the message fabrication - Evidence: "Check marks indicate a sent message on WhatsApp, not a received one.

Popular worship leader Sean Feucht was caught apparently fabricating a threatening message to portray himself as persecuted by critics. Technical analysis by Mike Winger revealed telltale signs the WhatsApp message was sent by Feucht himself, not received. This incident highlights a broader challenge: how do we maintain integrity in church leadership when political influence and platform size can overshadow character issues? The case study offers valuable lessons about digital literacy, fact-checking, and the biblical mandate for accountability. Key takeaways: - Technical evidence can reveal social media manipulation - Patterns of exaggeration should raise red flags about credibility - Church leaders need proactive accountability standards, not reactive damage control The discussion connects to WordPress community values around transparency, evidence-based decision-making, and protecting community members from harm.

It kind of looks that way [00:08] and this appears to be kind of a [00:10] pattern. Let's dive into this. [00:17] Hello, I am John Rick Baker and this is [00:18] the Minor Profits podcast. Today we're [00:20] going to be looking at Shan Fu. Now, uh, [00:22] those of you watching, it's not news to [00:24] you that Shawn Fu represents kind of a [00:26] the marriage between the hyper MAGA [00:29] movement and the hyper charismatic N [00:32] sort of world. Um, there's several [00:33] figures that kind of are occupying that [00:36] space, but Sean Fu has been out front [00:39] since 2020 where he was very popular for [00:43] staying standing against COVID with his [00:45] lettuce worship, but he also was part of [00:46] the burn. Um, there have been many [00:49] people, including some we've had on this [00:51] podcast, that's Christy Gaffford, who [00:54] have been blowing the whistle about Shan [00:56] Fu's treatment of his volunteers, what [00:58] looks like mismanagement of some money. [01:01] Um, these are the allegations. He's [01:03] currently being sued for that. Um, using [01:06] ministry funds that came in to him for [01:08] the purpose of doing more uh ministry [01:11] and rather than doing more ministry, [01:12] he's now using that to enrich himself. [01:15] um or these are the allegations in the [01:17] lawsuit and by by properties. So um you [01:22] know the lawsuit is underway. We'll see [01:24] what evidence comes out during [01:26] deposition. Definitely going to be [01:28] interested in that. The reason that I [01:30] want to cover this is because Sean Foy [01:32] is a very influential voice in the [01:34] church particularly certain corners of [01:37] the church. A a lot of the people within [01:39] kind of the N hyperarismatic world very [01:42] much love and platform Shawn Floyd [01:45] because he makes stands that they agree [01:48] with. And this actually is indicative of [01:51] the pervasive problem. We just recently [01:53] had Landon Shot endorsing [01:55] [clears throat] fullthroatedly endorsing [01:57] Paula White, [01:58] >> lead senior pastor of Mercy Culture in [02:00] Fort Worth, Texas, a reformer with an [02:03] apostolic heart, pastor, author, and [02:06] leader calling the church to bold faith, [02:09] biblical truth, and cultural engagement. [02:12] Landon shot. [02:14] >> Good afternoon. It's wonderful to be [02:17] here. Thank you, Pastor Paula, for [02:19] inviting Heather and I. Heather will be [02:21] speaking later today. And I don't think [02:23] enough people realize the gift to the [02:26] body of Christ in our nation that Pastor [02:29] Paula White is. She tirelessly fights [02:32] for the body of Christ in our nation [02:34] behind the scenes. She is a brilliant [02:37] woman and an epic leader. Can we just [02:39] stand our feet and just honor Pastor [02:40] Paula? Thank her for hosting this event [02:42] and thank her for everything that she [02:44] does in the body of Christ. We [02:46] appreciate you and we honor you. [02:48] [applause] [02:51] Why? Because through Paula White, uh it [02:54] seems he gets access to to the [02:56] president. Um now, is that why he's [02:59] endorsing her? I can't think of another [03:00] reason, but maybe he would argue with me [03:02] about that. Paula White has a more than [03:05] questionable history when it comes to [03:06] her teaching and her sexual ethics. I do [03:09] not think that she's anybody that we [03:11] should be platforming within the church, [03:13] but um when power is involved, then who [03:17] cares, right? uh as long as we are [03:20] getting our message out to the masses [03:23] and then we can influence the halls of [03:25] power um being a prophetic voice about [03:28] sin doesn't matter. Bear in mind that [03:30] John the Baptist was beheaded because he [03:33] refused to compromise his message to [03:36] King Herod. Um that's what real prophets [03:39] are to do, right? They're supposed to [03:40] speak the truth even when it costs them [03:42] something. But the reality is, as long [03:45] as there is power that is to be had, [03:48] then who cares? Now, let's look at Shan [03:50] Foit's post. It says this. Thanks so [03:53] much, Mike Winger and Julie Roy. Don't [03:55] know who you guys are working for, but [03:57] it's clearly not the kingdom of God. And [04:01] this is the WhatsApp message. Um, it is [04:05] ostensibly to Shan Fo, but uh, we'll get [04:09] into the reasons why it's not in just a [04:12] second. It says this, "Heads up, bro. [04:13] Just an FYI. I see Hindu extremists and [04:17] Muslim radicals are now working with [04:19] Julie Royce and Mike Winger's articles [04:21] on you to target your house, your kids, [04:23] and all the sensitive information they [04:25] have tried to leak about you. Praying [04:26] for you." Um, praying emoji. Now, here's [04:30] what's suspicious about this. We see the [04:32] double check mark and we see the color [04:35] has been grayed out. Why is that [04:37] significant? because only the double the [04:39] double check mark only appears when you [04:42] are the sender of a message. So if this [04:44] is a screenshot that he has on his [04:45] phone, it's a screenshot he took from a [04:48] message he sent. Then we see this, it's [04:51] totally grayed out. Why does that [04:52] matter? Because in a WhatsApp message, [04:55] um it'll appear one color when you're [04:57] sending and another color when you are [04:59] receiving. And in order to totally avoid [05:01] the um suspicion that maybe maybe [05:04] something has been sent rather than [05:06] received, he totally grayed out the [05:08] color. Now we can see this. There's a uh [05:12] um community note here. Uh this message [05:15] uh was sent from Sean Foy as evidenced [05:17] by the double check marks. You know, we [05:18] can see this. Moreover, the image color [05:20] has been altered as evidenced by the [05:22] emoji's unusual drabness. Now, this is [05:24] what Mike Winger had to say about it. [05:26] This was hilarious, but there's a deeper [05:28] issue. The hilarious part is how easy it [05:30] was to catch Shawn Foy lying to everyone [05:32] in order to make himself look like a [05:33] victim like Jesse Smilelette but MAGA. [05:36] Now, just so you know, uh Shawn Foy also [05:39] got caught claiming that he was [05:40] firebombed at a worship event when [05:42] really it was one of those smoke bombs [05:44] that you uh release for gender reveal [05:46] parties and uh somebody threw it up at [05:49] the at the stage. Now, would I like a [05:51] smoke bomb thrown up at me uh when I'm [05:53] trying to lead worship? Absolutely not. [05:55] But to go online and claim persecution [05:58] like, "Oh, somebody firebombed me." [06:00] That's a a bridge too far. Moreover, he [06:03] said it was because he was a Christian. [06:04] But the reality is, uh, in Canada, there [06:06] have been many Christian events that do [06:09] not get smokebombed. He got particularly [06:11] targeted because he is particularly [06:14] contankerous and, um, is a provocator. [06:18] uh as evidenced by his online behavior. [06:20] As you can see, Mike Winger continues, [06:22] "Sean Fu, the famous worship leader with [06:25] multiple ministries, friend of Shawn BS, [06:27] lies a lot. Yesterday's example of him [06:30] lying about me and Julie, was merely a [06:32] convenient one. I quickly discovered it [06:34] was not a message someone sent Shawn, [06:36] but really a message that he sent [06:38] himself, possibly because he knows I'm [06:40] going to make a video about him [06:41] outlining many lies and manipulations in [06:44] his ministry. The issues I will uncover [06:46] are serious." He even got a community [06:48] note, but it doesn't currently lay out [06:50] all the reasons for it being fake. So, [06:51] here's a list. One, check marks indicate [06:54] a sent message on WhatsApp, not a [06:56] received one. Only senders see check [06:58] marks on messages. Two, the praying [07:00] hands font and timestamp are also from [07:03] WhatsApp. Three, the color has been [07:05] drained. See the praying hands, which [07:07] would normally have blue sleeves, likely [07:10] as a way of hiding the green color [07:12] inherent in a sent message. and four [07:15] message uh the message is dumb implying [07:18] Shan Fo wrote it. I have also attached a [07:21] message I was recently sent warning me [07:23] about Shan Fo attacking me. [07:27] [laughter] [07:28] This is [07:31] Hey Mike, just a heads up Shan Fo is [07:33] writing himself messages on WhatsApp and [07:35] lying about you in them. He sends the [07:37] messages himself but pretends it's [07:39] someone else. So, yes, thank you uh Mike [07:42] Winger for the dry and sarcastic humor [07:44] that you so faithfully provide us. Now, [07:47] I Why does this matter? Um because Shawn [07:51] has a track record of doing this, trying [07:53] to demonize people who are trying to [07:56] hold him to account, calling him out on [07:58] his uh on his lies or his contankerous [08:01] behavior. Now, let's look at this. This [08:03] comes from, I think, February uh last [08:06] month. And um Sean Foy wrote this. A [08:10] witch came to disturb and disrupt our [08:12] worship event in Sydney on Saturday [08:14] night. She began cursing at the top of [08:15] her lungs while I was preaching in [08:17] between songs. Yet it didn't affect us [08:19] like she hoped. We don't get rattled by [08:21] that demonic filth. The people just kept [08:23] praising and drown uh and drown her out. [08:26] What a prophetic picture of what we all [08:28] need to do in this season. Drown out the [08:30] devil with praise. Okay, just so you [08:33] know, Sean Fo has been for a while [08:36] ceaselessly calling for the release of [08:38] the Epstein files. And well, I haven't [08:42] seen him post about that for a little [08:43] bit, but he was completely silent when [08:46] his friend Mike Bickl was outed as a [08:47] sexual predator. Um, he's been [08:50] completely silent about the fact that [08:51] his buddy and fellow board member, um, [08:55] Shawn and Fu and Shawn BS were on each [08:57] other's boards. Sean Fu was one of the [09:00] guys who was on the board that was [09:02] according to uh Jeremy Bros and other [09:05] witnesses warned by Chris Valatin to do [09:09] something when they caught him not only [09:12] uh fabricating prophecies but also in [09:15] some of the sexual predations that they [09:16] that they had evidence of. Sean Foy [09:19] totally silent when all of this has been [09:21] exposed. Completely silent. He just [09:24] thinks that he can drown out the devil, [09:26] quote unquote, with with praise. Um, but [09:31] this is what he said. He said this was a [09:33] witch, but we can see right here what [09:35] actually happened. [09:37] >> It's [clears throat] a controversy that [09:39] people want to worship God. You know, [09:41] it's like so crazy, but whatever. There [09:44] was a controversy because the Christians [09:46] were so dangerous. [09:49] We're just known to be dangerous people. [09:52] Hey, only when they spread hate. [09:55] >> Only when they spread hate. [09:56] >> Around the around us, there was probably [09:59] 300 something protesters, [10:02] >> you know, they were just they were just [10:04] I mean, it was very clear. You getting [10:06] to talk to the police. [10:08] >> Okay, so that was [10:12] that was what really happened. But this [10:14] is what Sean claims. A witch came to [10:17] disturb and disrupt our worship event in [10:19] Sydney. She began cursing at the top of [10:21] her lungs while I was preaching in [10:23] between songs. Okay. What evidence does [10:26] he have that this woman was a witch? [10:28] Zero. Um, what evidence does he have [10:31] that she was cursing at the top of her [10:33] lungs? Zero. In fact, if there is [10:35] evidence of that, he's got the recording [10:37] of that event, I'm sure. And he could [10:39] release it and and tell everybody. He [10:42] he's he's obviously not shy about [10:45] talking about the controversies that uh [10:47] that he's embroiled in. he could easily [10:51] um release uh video evidence that [10:54] contradicts the clear video evidence [10:56] that I just showed you that really this [10:58] was a woman who was speaking out in [11:00] disagreement to Shawn's victim [11:02] narrative. Now, you might disagree with [11:06] this woman's politics. I don't know her [11:08] politics. I don't know what she where [11:10] she stands or what she has a say um uh [11:13] politically. It and it doesn't really [11:15] matter. It's neither here nor there. But [11:17] the point is this is another example of [11:19] Shan Fo's clear pattern of embellishment [11:22] and fabrication for the purpose of [11:24] painting himself as a victim. Now this [11:26] is from Protestia talking about this [11:28] exact uh incident. Shan Fo claims he was [11:31] attacked by a witch, but the video shows [11:33] something different. Prominent worship [11:35] leader Shan Fu has publicly claimed that [11:36] his recent worship event was disrupted [11:38] by a witch who began cursing at the top [11:40] of her lungs, but the video evidence of [11:42] the incident shows something very [11:43] different. Foy, who was recently accused [11:45] by multiple former senior ministry [11:47] leaders and employees of being guilty of [11:50] fraud, embezzlement, abuse, and chronic [11:53] exaggeration, made the comments on X [11:56] regarding the incident at his Let Us [11:58] Worship Australian tour. Uh here's the [12:00] post that I just read to you. And he [12:03] later added, the witch was non-stop [12:05] cursing us the whole time. Uh so he says [12:08] this from a worship leader from [12:10] Australia today. The witchcraft and [12:11] spiritual warfare dynamics are at a [12:13] level I have not experienced before. We [12:15] must stay prayed up. Um this is the [12:18] alleged uh conversation. I was just [12:20] chatting to a friend of mine who had a [12:22] witch come into their service cursed the [12:24] person who was up on the stage and the [12:26] one that was giving announcements fell [12:28] over dead on stage. The production team [12:30] saw her running out skipping saying my [12:32] work here is done. They took her to the [12:34] hospital and she continued to die [12:36] another four or five times in their care [12:38] and had major seizures. Not sure what [12:40] the outcome is yet. The fight is so [12:42] real. Crazy, right? Um he says, "Wow, [12:46] man, that is crazy. Was this in [12:48] Australia as well? That witch in Sydney [12:50] has was non-stop cursing us the whole [12:52] time from the very back." Yes, [12:54] Australia. I think it is waking people [12:55] up. Okay. All right. So, this is insane. [12:59] This is insane. saying that this person [13:02] uh like where where's evidence of this? [13:04] Is there any evidence here that um [13:06] somebody who's giving announcements died [13:08] four or five times and had major [13:10] seizures because somebody uh had cursed [13:14] that person? Is there any evidence at [13:16] all? No. And then Sean says, "Oh, that's [13:18] the same lady that we see in that video [13:21] saying only when they spread hate." [13:23] That's all she said. But now Shawn is [13:26] painting this picture of this woman [13:27] slandering her. This is a grave sin, by [13:30] the way. Slandering her and uh with zero [13:33] evidence and claiming that she is the [13:35] very witch that is responsible for this [13:38] death. Uh why do I say that? That witch [13:41] in Sydney was non-stop cursing us the [13:43] whole time from the very back. Not only [13:45] was she not non-stop cursing him, um I [13:49] don't even think this whole story here [13:51] happened. I also think because Sean [13:54] apparently is not above faking uh [13:57] messages that he screenshots and shares [13:59] to his social media. I I just don't [14:02] believe any of this. I think he's the [14:04] source for all this. This is my opinion. [14:05] I don't I don't know that to be a fact. [14:08] This is just what I think. Uh I don't [14:10] think that any of this happened. I think [14:12] it's all an utter lie. now says this. [14:16] According to Hillsong Accountability, HA [14:20] posted a video of the incident and [14:21] nothing of the sort seems to have [14:23] happened, including the cursing at the [14:24] top of her lungs. Instead, when FO was [14:26] sarcastically mimicking people who [14:28] insist that Christians are controversial [14:30] and dangerous, she piped up, "Hey, only [14:32] when they spread hate." Only when they [14:34] spread hate. You heard the um uh video. [14:38] That was it. That was the extent of it. [14:39] HA offers as commentary. Shawn claimed a [14:42] witch tried to disrupt the Sydney [14:44] worship event at Hillsong Chapel, but [14:47] the reply under his own post tells a [14:49] different story. A woman challenged him [14:51] verbally. No curses, no demonic filth, [14:54] no script uh supernatural showdown, just [14:57] a person calling out behavior she [15:00] disagreed with. When leaders exaggerate [15:02] ordinary criticism into spiritual [15:05] warfare, it stops being truth and starts [15:07] being theater. And when the only [15:09] evidence is a tweet in a dramatic story, [15:12] it's fair to question the narrative. [15:14] This wasn't a witch, it was a woman with [15:16] a voice. The only magic here is how fast [15:18] a simple disagreement got spun into a [15:21] demon story. They also note that Fo's [15:23] time in Australia was beset by a lack of [15:25] interest. Side note, he planned to have [15:26] an event at Hillsong 600 seat epicenter [15:29] venue, but ticket sales were so low they [15:32] moved to the chapel where 60 to 80 [15:34] people showed up about 30 to 40% of its [15:36] 200 seat capacity. [15:40] So that's what Protestia had to say [15:41] about this event. So Shawn has a long [15:43] track record of using worship as a [15:45] middle finger to his political enemies [15:47] and demonizing those who are simply [15:49] calling for accountability. And he has [15:53] been platformed by the church in many [15:56] different circles over and over and over [15:59] again. And there are people who know [16:01] about his um lack of integrity and have [16:05] been silent. And I think that we need to [16:09] be asking this question. When are church [16:12] leaders going to hold people to account [16:15] without having to be forced to do so? [16:18] Um, we recently talked about Jake Kale. [16:21] Now, as you know, Jake Kale has called [16:23] out Jeremiah Johnson. If you don't know [16:26] about that, I've talked about it in the [16:27] last couple videos. You can look at that [16:29] here on the channel. Um, link down [16:31] below. But uh Jake Kale is a guy who was [16:34] not forced to have to make a statement. [16:39] Instead, he made one out of good [16:41] conscience when he saw that there was [16:43] enough evidence that Jeremiah Johnson [16:45] was plagiarizing people, falsifying [16:46] prophetic words, and showing an overall [16:49] lack of integrity. Um he was overwhelmed [16:52] by the evidence and he made a statement [16:54] not because he had to, but because he [16:56] believed it was the right thing to do. [16:58] and he had he had to pay a price for [17:01] that. My question is this, when are [17:04] other church leaders going to follow [17:06] suit when they're not going to be forced [17:09] to have to make a statement because they [17:11] would uh lose their reputation, but they [17:13] are going to make a statement because it [17:16] is the right thing to do to warn the [17:17] body of Christ about somebody who has no [17:20] scruples. Um, that is what I am looking [17:23] for. That is what I'm calling for. The [17:26] shepherds of God's church need to have [17:28] enough integrity to warn the church [17:29] about wolves, liars, fraudsters, and [17:33] others who are profiting off of the [17:36] flock of God, offering them a bill of [17:38] goods, and then walking away with a bag. [17:41] This podcast exists to try to change the [17:45] cultural narrative when it comes to [17:48] exposure and accountability and to say [17:51] no. 1 Timothy 5 is an a requirement for [17:55] the New Testament church that those [17:57] elders or those who are in leadership in [18:00] the church or have a position of [18:02] prominence for their teaching or worship [18:04] or what have you um those who are [18:08] continuing in sin should be rebuked [18:10] before all so that all may see and [18:13] tremble. People should be rebuked on the [18:15] level of their influence. And if there [18:18] is a legitimate accusation where we know [18:21] that we know that we know that somebody [18:23] is a fraud, then uh and we are silent [18:26] about it as James says, "He who knows [18:28] the good he ought to do and does it not [18:30] to him it is sin." And so we need the [18:35] body of Christ to police itself. And my [18:37] question is, when are church leaders who [18:39] have platformed Shawn going to speak up [18:42] when they know? Um, how much evidence? [18:45] How many witnesses do you need? Mike [18:47] Winger's video is going to come out [18:49] soon. And we're going to see exactly [18:53] exactly everything that Shawn has been [18:55] up to. And we're going to have to look [18:58] at really long and hard at who has [19:00] platformed Shawn, who has uh been close [19:03] to Shawn and has yet to say something if [19:07] uh or at least they have been loathed to [19:10] look at the evidence. There's some [19:12] people here who they know about this and [19:14] then there's some people who are [19:15] intentionally blind to the evidence. [19:18] Some people just don't know. They're not [19:19] on social media. They don't they don't [19:20] know about this stuff. They haven't seen [19:22] any of Mike Winger's videos, whatever. [19:23] But um people in their church who do [19:25] know about this should be sending them [19:27] sending this to their church leaders and [19:29] saying you need to look at the evidence. [19:31] You need to look at the evidence. We [19:33] cannot afford as church leaders to be [19:35] blind to evidence of uh malfeasants when [19:38] it comes to those who have an influence [19:40] on those underneath our care. So that's [19:42] all I have to say today. Uh we'll see [19:44] you in the next video.  📄 **Full text:** ![[Full Document Contents/Articles/Fire Bomb Sean Feucht Faking Persecution Again|"Fire Bomb" Sean Feucht Faking Persecution Again?, YouTube]] ## Highlights - was to catch Shawn Foy lying to everyone in order to make himself look like a victim like Jesse Smilelette but MAGA. Now, just so you know, uh Shawn Foy also got caught claiming that he was firebombed at a worship event when really it was one of those smoke bombs that you uh release for gender reveal parties and uh somebody threw it up at the at the stage. Now, would I like a smoke bomb thrown up at me uh when I'm trying to lead worship? Absolutely not. But to go online and claim persecution like, "Oh, somebody firebombed me."

But the reality is, uh, in Canada, there have been many Christian events that do not get smokebombed. He got particularly targeted because he is particularly contankerous and, um, is a provocator. uh as evidenced by his online behavior. As you can see, Mike Winger continues, "Sean Fu, the famous worship leader with multiple ministries, friend of Shawn BS, lies a lot.
