To get right to the point, Pastor Jeff Redlin is a first-class jerk! I am
good at sizing up people quickly. I can tell within a few weeks if a person
really cares or doesn't give a damn. Jeff Redlin is a self-absorbed little
man who doesn't give a damn about hurting people. The great thing about not
getting paid to have a ministry is that I can preach whatever I want, and
unlike Jeff Redlin (who gets paid a sickening 6-digit salary) I can can let
'er rip! That coward can't!
I first started attending Campus Church in July of 2021. I learned quickly that Pastor Jeff Redlin is a little man with a little heart. I was hoping to become friends with the church, but all it took was one uncaring lousy pastor to prevent that from happening. Honestly, I don't know how some jerk like Jeff Redlin was chosen to lead Campus Church. It saddens me to think that Pensacola Christian College's 5,000 students are being adversely influenced by an academic snob who has zero people skills! Jeff Redlin is a pathetic insecure little man!
They actually charge $10 at Campus Church to learn how to share the Gospel. I am not kidding folks! It made me sick to hear Pastor Redlin telling the church that they should pay $10 if they want to attend a seminar on how to share the Gospel with people. Today's churches are pathetic! Of course, Pensacola Christian College started Campus Church as a convenience for their students, so it's not a genuine church. Proof of that is Jeff Redlin's abuse toward me when I started attending Campus Church in July of 2021.
I made the sincere mistake of thinking that it was a real church, with a genuine pastor who walks with God and actually cares about human beings like me. Boy was I wrong! Pastor Redlin shamefully treated me like garbage, shunning and making me feel horrible for even daring to mention that I hoped to find a wife at Campus Church. That shallow phony for a man of God literally scolded me. The truth is that he didn't know me well enough to talk to me like that. Jeff Redlin took liberties that he is not entitled to. He didn't pray with me. He never expressed any sympathy for for pain, loss and hardships. But he unjustly criticized me and my ministry. What a little man and shameful pastor! No wonder so many people are disgruntled with pastors nowadays.
I really loathe Campus Church. I want to tell you a story, how me and Redlin first met. I had moved from Guam to Pensacola. I left Guam at 8 am on July 1st, and then arrived 43 hours later at 11:47 am on July 2nd in Pensacola. The move cost me $16,000. I spent $10,000 for a used vehicle. I spend $4,500 for a crate to ship my stuff (mostly musical instruments). I spent $2,500 for the plane ticket. My first priority when I landed was to find a church and be there on Sunday! I searched Google for where college kids from Pensacola Christian College (PCC) attend church, and that is how I found the Campus Church. I am a bit slow to figure things out. I didn't realize why they called it “Campus Church” until I found out the church was located on PCC's campus. That makes sense now.
At the 4th of July picnic, I attended the church service and stayed around for the picnic afterwards. I felt lost, like a fish out of water. I had first wandered over by the bleachers. I grabbed a free bottle of water and sat down for awhile on the bottom step of the bleachers. The sun was hot! After a few moments I needed to walk around and get out of the heat. So I aimlessly wandered over by the church building and then back across the street. I didn't know what to do, or where to go, so I just tried to look like I knew what I was doing...lol. I walked over on the other side of the tents, where people were eating. I was heading toward my vehicle to leave, but in my heart I didn't want to go. I knew that there was no evening church service that night, and I really needed to be around other Christians, and it was my first time at the church. So in a state of indecision I just stood there, on the grass, looking back and forth for a few minutes.
The next thing I know a stranger came up from behind and said to me: “You look lost!” I said, “I sure am!” I didn't know that the stranger was Pastor Redlin. As we walked to the picnic table he was bringing me to, I kindly told him that I sleeping in Wal-Mart's parking lot. Redlin got nervous and I could tell it startled him. Sadly, I saw by the expression on his startled face that he didn't know what to do, and he was afraid I might ask for a place to stay. His face said it all! That jerk couldn't get away from me fast enough, and he did! That is a little pastor. God knows that I sincerely didn't expect his help, nor has the idea even crossed my mind. But afterwards I realized that Jeff was afraid I wanted his help. That is pathetic! I met some knew church members at the table, but Redlin's unkindness set a bad precedent for things to come.
When I started attending Campus Church, Jeff Redlin seemed okay at first, until I shared my broken life with him and burdens. He scampered away from me like a cockroach when the light is turned on in a basement. Redlin behaved SHAMEFULLY! I couldn't believe that the pastor of such a giant church had such a small heart! How could such a big church have a small man for a pastor, who is so shallow? It is sad indeed. When I told Jeff Redlin that I was divorced and hoped to find a wife, you would have thought that I slept with his wife. He freaked out and wanted nothing to do with me. In case you don't know folks, divorced people are abused like second-class citizens in the PCC camp. Now if you're divorced and already remarried, they'll accept you. But if you are divorced and looking for a spouse, they will ostracize and reject you, as Jeff Redlin did me. That just shows the utter hypocrisy, ongoing abuse and unrealistic mentality of fundamentalist Christians today. I don't blame half the country for going after fundamentalist churches and Bible colleges nowadays, because THEY ARE ABUSIVE. Pastor Jeff Redlin ABUSED ME!!! I wouldn't mistreat a dog the way Redlin mistreated me, and he is the guy entrusted to lead PC students to a higher spiritual plane? NO WAY! Redlin is a carnal pipsqueak who is leading PCC's thousands of students into a yuppie, selfish, warped type of shallow Christianity.
Yesterday morning I was struggling to make it though the church service. I have permanent spinal cord damage. I have a pronounced limp when I walk, because the entire right side of my body feels half asleep. I can walk it out over a few minutes, but when I get up from a seated position, the right side of my body feels like dead weight, and I limp. I don't usually sit upfront in church. I sit in back because of my medical needs. But someone invited me to sit upfront, which made me so happy that I totally forgot about my neck injury. I made it through the first half of Pastor Redlin's boring sermon. Anyway, as I sat in church, trying to sit still and just listen, the pain in my neck was so bad. Both of my arms feel inflated with air. It is all caused by damage to my spinal nerves in my neck. I feel burning throughout my entire nervous system. The right side of my body feels half asleep all the time. I feel tension in my neck 24/7, similar to the feel you get from whiplash. My neck feels wound up and tight all the time, with bone-gnawing, toothache-like, agonizing, chronic pain 24/7, 365 days a year. That would drive anyone bananas! In other words, it is a form of torture for me to even sit comfortably through a church service. But during Redlin's long and boring sermons I have difficulty listening.
So I once in a while have anxiety attacks in church, induced by the neck pain, tension and burning nerves (this medical article explains a bit about how neck injuries can cause people to feel anxiety). So this past Sunday morning I felt overwhelmed and needed to stand up, try not to step on the toes of the 10 people in the pew sitting to my right, and then quietly limp to the back of the church auditorium. I just stayed in the hallway, listening to every word that the pastor was preaching, determined from now on to sit in the back, so I won't interrupt his sermon again. I hate doing that, truly. Very few people understand how spinal injuries can adversely affect people. My neck injury has adversely affected my life, but God uses it to keep me humble and bless my ministry. 2nd Corinthians 12:10, “Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.” God uses weak things, things that are despised, nobodies, misfits like me.
I haven't been to church in a long
time, so it will take some time for me to get used to all this again. Right
now I feel like a fish out of water. I feel like I'm in The Twilight Zone.
I'm now visiting a few different churches around the Pensacola area. Sadly,
every church has made me feel welcomed EXCEPT Campus Church. As soon as me
and Pastor Redlin exchanged some unpleasant words in emails, the information
desk stopped being friendly toward me. That's the cult attitude and shameful
behavior of bully fundamentalists that make people so angry toward them, and
I am a victim too!
When a female student at Bob Jones University was raped, the college
expelled her! They wanted nothing to do with her anymore. Where's the
love and compassion? That is the sickening type of hatred, rejection,
bullying, intolerance and self-righteous snobbery that you can expect from
PCC and BJU today!!!
There's An Epidemic Of Abuse In Today's Bible Colleges And Churches
A
female graduate of Pensacola Christian College says that sexual abuse has
happened at PCC. Like Samantha Field, I am sick and tired of the
emotional and physical abuse that goes on in these fundamentalist Bible
colleges. I have declared war on selfish jerks like Pastor Jeff Redlin! When
I shared my broken life with Pastor Redlin, he might as well have thrown me
under a bus and left me for dead! Redlin didn't give a damn. I sincerely
tried to be his friend, but was met with his self-righteous cowardly
demeanor.
Pastor Redlin wrongly berated me for wanting to get remarried. He blew me off for 10 days, refusing to reply to my emails, because he was too lacking as a man to respond. It baffles me how such an incompetent person was chosen to pastor Campus Church where nearly all of PCC's students attend. What a shame! I couldn't believe Jeff's immature response to seeing my website ministry. Redlin has zero people skills! But worse, he just doesn't care about hurting people!!! If he did, he would have at least offered to pray with me, but he never did. Redlin is a pathetic coward who hides behind PCC's security department, in typical cult fashion. I'm not kidding folks! It is sickening.
These people who operate PCC and Campus Church are cowards! They refuse to join in The Battle Of The Ages (as Pastor Jack Hyles rightly called it in 1994) over the inspiration of the King James Bible. Satan has crept hundreds of corrupt Bible revisions into the churches and Bible colleges, but the PCC camp are eerily silent about the whole matter. They instead sinfully label people like me as “radicals” for getting upset over the Devil messing with God's Word. SHAME ON PCC!!! One of PCC own, Pastor Sean Quinlan, shamefully berated me on Guam in 2018, calling me “obsessed” over the Bible debate. No, Sean Quinlan is a spineless wimp with no gonads, who refuses to contend for the faith (Jude 1:3). Pastor Jeff Redlin shamefully accused me in July of 2021 of “finding weaknesses” in pastors. No Jeff, I am being a faithful man to “REBUKE THEM SHARPLY” as the Bible commands (Titus 1:10-13), not sinfully bidding Godspeed to evildoers as you shamefully do (2nd John 1:11). Jeff Redlin is NOT right with God. If he was, then he would care, but he doesn't. Psalms 119:104, “Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way.”
Caring people recognize caring people. Jeff Redlin doesn't give a damn!!! People know when they are loved. I had about a half dozen stray dogs in my old neighbourhood on Guam, who knew that I loved them. I fed them when they were hungry. Some of the dogs were friendlier than the others. A couple of the dogs would wait for me to come home, and when I got out of my vehicle they would stand up and put their paws on me, expressing their love for a human. Animals know what love is. They know when someone cares about them. How much more do we as humans know when someone cares? I sure do. A little bit of love can make all the difference in the world in a person's life. Pastor Redlin is a weasel.
All I wanted was to be loved and welcomed at Campus Church, but senior pastor Jeff Redlin made a federal case out of the whole ordeal, for which I still don't understand what the hell he was thinking. The guy has issues, really. When a normal person like me comes into a church, sharing his broken life and burdens with the pastor, and that pastor couldn't care less, something is spiritually very wrong with that pastor! Redlin never once offered to pray with me. Pastor Redlin never once expressed any sympathy for my divorce, loneliness, hardships and neck pain. It's like somebody slandered me to him and he ran with it, freaking out as a little boy instead of being a man of God who makes his own decisions. I am so disappointed in Pastor Redlin. he really blew it! And worst of all, that arrogant and sinfully proud jerk hasn't lifted a finger to make things right with me. So now I will expose him and the sexual predators in today's fundamentalist Bible colleges.
