What do you do when you hire investigators to look into your own organization and they come back saying your top leadership needs to go?

If you're Greater Grace World Outreach, apparently, you publish the report and then do as little as possible about it.

The GRACE investigation was 172 pages. It named four leaders who should be removed. It described an authoritarian culture rooted in fear-based messaging and theological manipulation. It found that leadership had been involved in silencing victims and smoothing over allegations in ways the investigators described as consistent with a cover-up.

The church responded with a general apology that named no specific individuals who failed. They published a roadmap that referenced future leadership transitions with no dates and no commitments. Some lower-level ordinations were revoked. But the senior pastor, the missions director, the youth pastor, and the youth ministry director — all four specifically named — remained in place. Then the church resigned from the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability while under governance review.

Elita Galvin has been watching every move. She started publicly investigating Greater Grace in 2023, well before the official process began, and now hosts the Looking for Grace podcast. She understands the investigation findings, the church's response, and the parallels to the IBLP system that our audience already knows from covering the Duggar family.

Oscar, joining us under a pseudonym, offers something different — the voice of someone who left two decades ago and still gets physically sick trying to process the report's contents. This episode is about what broke the silence, what the investigation revealed, and whether this institution is capable of the accountability the report demands.
