More Lewd Behavior at Homestead Heritage

 

 And He said, "What comes out of a man, that defiles a man. For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lewdness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride. foolishness. All these evil things come from within and defile a man."   Mark 7:20-23

I'm going to refrain from using names in this post to protect the identity of a young woman.  

We typically hear about the actionable sexual misconduct at Homestead when there is a news story, or it is included on the Sex Offender Registry. But what about the lewdness, inappropriate suggestiveness or touching, and the complete lack of remorse for such? Is this acceptable behavior at Homestead Heritage? It would appear so. 

Recently, a member of Homestead was told about his granddaughter participating in her first Jiu-Jitsu tournament. The father sharing this information was very proud of his daughter. The response from the young woman's grandfather was:

"When I wrestled with girls they got pregnant."

How is lewdness an acceptable way for an allegedly Christian man to speak about his granddaughter? How is it an acceptable way for any man to speak about his granddaughter?  And yet, a few months later this man would complain to his son that his grandchildren avoid him. I'm glad that they do. I would make certain they never have any contact with him again. 

This wasn't the first time this man behaved in a sexually inappropriate way. Years earlier, he grabbed his son's wife and ground his genitals against hers. Witnessing this, and knowing his wife's distress, he went to his minister, an elder at Homestead Heritage, and relayed what took place. This elder downplayed the unwanted sexual contact. It's unknown if any further ministry took place, but there was never an apology forthcoming for this violation. 

And yet, when this sexually perverse man complained to a minister about his son's wife not waving when he passed by, it was somehow an egregious enough sin worthy of ministry. This is how the degradation and subjugation of women at Homestead Heritage takes place. Perverse sexual conduct and speech is acceptable, but not waving to the sexual aggressor is an offense. 

As far as I can tell, these incidents are not actionable, so there won't be any arrest record, court cases, new stories, or sex offender registry to alert anyone. However, there is at least one other sexual predator who is a member in good standing at Homestead Heritage.
