Word Of Caution

A word of caution is in order about Persecution Project Foundation and Brad Phillips. I'm a former Persecution Project supporter and I discovered an extremely disturbing story ( http://ministrywatchman.com/?p=83 ) late last year about Brad Phillips and Persecution Project and a film they claimed to have "produced" called Sudan The Hidden Holocaust. Allegations surfaced some time ago that Brad Phillips never actually produced the video at all, but stole a master copy of the video from the actual producer, Jeremiah Films. The video remains available from Jeremiah Films, but none too surprising, Persecution Project no longer offers it, even though it remains extremely relevant and even though PP made a lot of money off it. I know that sometimes missionaries are capable of doing some foolish things, especially when it comes with trying to interact with a culture they're unfamiliar with. But this is worse than just foolish ignorance. To me it seems Brad Phillips has acted in an extremely greedy and evern a reckless way that jeopardized the lives of the Sudanese that he claims to want to help. I think that Persecution Project's donors should contact Brad Phillips about these serious allegations, such as his theft of the Sudan The Hidden Holocaust video master, and try to get to the bottom of this. No simple wave of the hand or "It's all just a big misunderstanding" should satisfy any Persecution Project donor. Be forewarned though. That's exactly what they did to me when I called and asked about it. They won't be getting any more of my support at least until they come clean.
