I was at one time and know many who were. There was a chapter on the Central Coast. I have with many friends here on the coast ridden and prayed with Phil. Many members walked away after the 04 and 05 Tribal. We could see the hand writing on the wall.
Being close in proximity to Ventura makes things at times interesting.
Pretty sad. The church seems to be its own worst enemy at times.
Here is the LA Times story and a video link to the arrest.
