On May 20th, 2025, Pastor Timothy Forgy—associate pastor and financial director at Liberty Baptist Church in North Carolina—died by suicide. For days, there was silence. No police reports. No media coverage. No public statements.


I started asking questions.


What I uncovered is deeply disturbing.


In this episode of the Preacher Boys Podcast, I speak with Pastor Bob Gray II of Emmanuel Baptist Church in Longview, Texas—a church with a complex and controversial history. Through our conversation, I confirmed that an allegation of abuse involving a teenage girl surfaced on the very day of Forgy's death. What followed was a series of decisions that would change the trajectory of several lives.


This episode dives into a decades-old abuse allegation, the legacy of Longview Baptist Temple, and the culture of silence that has plagued the Independent Fundamental Baptist movement.
