Ministry leaders are speaking out after a gunman targeted Pastor Greg Locke and his family late last night.

Locke shared the disturbing news on Facebook, including images of bullet holes which were marked across his truck and the family’s home, even damaging his daughter’s headboard. One of Locke’s children was at home during the incident, but thankfully they were in a different area of the house. The Locke family is safe and were escorted to a secure location.

Since this news broke, ministry leaders close to Locke and his family have spoken out about the situation and how the body of Christ should react to this heinous act of violence.

Pastor Mike Signorelli took to YouTube for a livestream where he condemned the actions against Locke.

“I’m righteously angry,” Signorelli says.

Signorelli pointed to slander within the body of Christ as a stimulant for horrible actions to occur.

“For months and months I’ve been warning leaders in the body of Christ…saying ‘hey, look at the way that your people are acting in this comments section. Look at the way they’re talking. You need to correct that. You need to rebuke that. You need to discipline that.’ And many of them actually laughed at me and said, ‘It’s not that big of a deal.'”

“We are creating the conditions for these acts of violence. I’m talking ‘we’ as the body of Christ because we’re cooperating with the rhetoric of demons,” he continues.

“When I saw the pictures that Pastor Greg Locke posted, I thought to myself, ‘This is a life-altering event,'” he says.

Christian YouTuber Gabe Poirot also came out with a similar video, urging the body of Christ to speak and act more like Jesus.

“You cannot just be numb to what is going on around us because that’s exactly what the enemy is trying to do,” Poirot says.

“It is so important that we stop the bickering, we stop the criticism, we stop fighting against ourselves and that we would unite,” he continues.

Isaiah Saldivar also re-shared Locke’s Facebook, urging Christians to “pray for Pastor Greg Locke and his family!”

Jenny Weaver took to livestreaming as well to speak against slanderous speech.

“Enough is enough,” Weaver says. “I am asking for every minister, for every pastor, every person that is leading a group of people, you need to start to help your people stop…slandering ministers.”

Yesterday was the one-year anniversary of Pastor Locke’s Global Vision Bible Church National Deliverance Training Conference, where many people were set free through the power and the blood of Christ. It was also the release date of his new book, “The Generosity Journey.”

During this time, pray for the Locke family. This is the time for the body of Christ to heed these warnings so that we may not speak any unwholesome thing but rather speak words which elevate the name of Jesus.
