  • The husband of the woman who stood before her entire church and accused the pastor of having sex with her when she was a teenager is now speaking out. Bobi Gephart says Pastor John Lowe began grooming her when she was 14 and took her virginity when she turned 16. But Bobi says she never told her husband, Nate Gephart, until last month. She credits Nate with helping her find her voice. The pastor would not comment on our story.

      If he was married, then yes it was. It was adultery, rape, and child abuse. All in one revolting act. That man deserves his church to oust him and the authorities to ordain him as a sex offender. I hope he goes to jail.

      Why did she let her childhood abuser lead her own wedding?? That makes ZERO sense! Why would she continue to attend this church (and bring her own young children there!) when a child predator is leading the congregation?? That makes ZERO sense! Why wouldn’t she contact the authorities, but instead merely bring it up publicly in front of the congregation?? That makes ZERO sense! Why would she let this sexual abuse (relationship?) go on for NINE WHOLE YEARS-almost an entire DECADE!-ending it only well into her mid 20s?? That makes ZERO SENSE! This entire story makes zero sense, and we need to be a bit more skeptical and use our brains. Was the pastor in the wrong? Heck yes! What he did was horrible and I condemn it. But was she just an “innocent naive victim” until age 25?? I don’t know! But it seems like we’re not being given the whole story. Either she is just an incredibly careless and oblivious naive person with a child-like mind (I doubt it), or there is much more to this story. Just saying.

    My manager at my first job was 25 and I was 16 when he started grooming me… 17 when we did the deed. I didn’t have a great relationship with my father at home; emotionally and in general. So it was like a 2 for 1 package for me; a handsome older guy that made me feel special and an older guy I was also attracted too bc of the age difference and looking for a father in. He dumped me 3 weeks after he had sex with me in the most humiliating way for another 17 year old at the place I worked.
    I will forever regret the firsts, and the things I wasted on him. These men know what they’re doing and they like the inexperience and easy manipulation of a younger, virgin woman. (Girl, really)
    It’s scummy and not right. To this day he is married and still tries to mess with me. His new wife also has an 11-12 year old that isn’t his… I really really worry about that sometimes. But it’s not my battle anymore.

      She did not move away because she had been groomed so long she was incapable of recognizing the harm that was done to her. That is what grooming is. It normalizes abuse. When there is no witness to the abuse the victim endured for years and years, he/she often do not even do not recognize or admit even to one self the extent of the abuse. The victim has been groomed to believe that he/she is to blame or that what happened to him/her was normal. Psychologically it helps a long term victim of abuse to have a witness tell them that what happened was wrong. In this case the witness was a traumatized sibling who came forward and talked to her and made her realize the scale and degree of the abuse and how as a child she was never to blame.

      Some years back, a young girl that was placed in the care of her Father’s brother was being abused by this man. She confided in my younger sister, my younger sister told me. I was so angry and appalled. I told her I will tell her brother or her parents, she begged me not to, that they will be angry with her and punish her, that it’s her fault.
      I felt so sorry for her.
      She’s even been groomed by her parents that any harm that befell her it’s her fault. Imagine that!

So, looking back I don't understand why I didn't tell my Mom the first time that it happened to me but keeping silent about the abuse does happen a lot with victims. I said something to my friend, who unbeknownst to me was being abused by the same guy. That emboldened her to tell her Mother what was going on. Then her Mother got in touch with my Mother and a third Mother, who also got the same guy to babysit her children, was informed about what was going on. She took it upon herself to call the police. The police questioned the babysitter but they couldn't find anything to press charges against him. Many years later I found the babysitter on social media and gave him a piece of my mind. Naturally he denied what he did, called me some rude names and blocked me. I sent a message to his sister to warn him about what he did to me when I saw pictures of her baby daughter and how she let him see her.

Having been emotionally, psychologically & spiritually abused by a Church leader, other Church members & every way but sexually by my own parents, it's insulting that someone would not acknowledge the reality of the situation, especially when the abuse was sexual. I went on to be indecently assaulted because I'd been silenced so much by everyone I reached out to, I was unable to speak up for myself. Not acknowledging the reality of the situation is seriously damaging to the person on the receiving end of the abuse. And that half-hearted "apology" from the pastor to try to mitigate what was about to be revealed is truly sickening! And the clapping afterwards was totally inappropriate. I'm glad this woman held him accountable in front of his "adoring" congregation. I hope he gets the maximum sentence.

    Pastor was not sick,
    He just dehumanized her to a point where he did not care about the abuse.

    I'm confused. Started at 16 (the age of consent in her state) and lasted 9 years, til she was 25. Why didn't she stop it or bring it forward well before now? She continued to attend the church, even had this pastor perform her wedding ceremony. Then continued to attend the same church, possibly even had her children baptized by the man who "molested" her. Never informed her husband until recently. Those conversations should have happened before she married her husband. Many more questions than answers here.

      Look at a comment a few above by someone named Kcirtap Snikwah. They apparently have inside info on her and this church. There’s A LOT more to this whole story and it’s twisted.

      Yall need to go up above in the comments. Look for a comment by someone named Kcirtap Snikwah. They obviously have some inside information on these ppl and the church. There’s MUCH more to this story & if what this person said is true, it’s very sick & twisted.

    I have learned that people can forget what has happened specially in SA instances and years and years go by and they slowly start remembering things. They experience those horrible moments again and again by triggers. It is HORRIBLE I CAN NOT IMAGINE THE PAIN! Sending lots of love and care to everyone who is dealing with something

    Just because she was 16 does not mean she consented.

    I still don't like that she didn't come forward for so long...
    Glad the comments have similar thoughts. Thats waaay too long into adulthood to let that go. Hes evil, and deserves prison. But shes got responsiblity here too...

    I find it odd that she continued to go to that church, even after she was married. Seems weird to me
