Behind the lights, fog machines, and polished sermons lies a darker reality in megachurches. Scott Latta, award-winning journalist and author of Gods of the Smoke Machine, is on Christianity Without Compromise with host Jake Doberenz to discuss how evangelical megachurches create environments where spiritual abuse thrives. Drawing from personal experience and deep reporting, Scott outlines the patterns that allow abusive pastors to evade accountability and return to power—even after serious harm. We unpack the sociological model of the megachurch, how non-denominational structures often sidestep oversight, and why it’s so difficult for victims to speak out or even leave. This episode confronts how systems meant to glorify Jesus have become breeding grounds for abuse—and what needs to change.
