Is it possible he has some other stealth account somewhere where he posts actual religious and/or pastoresque and/or scholarly posts that have something, anything to do with what he’s supposedly going to school for?

 I am more and more suspicious that the MacArthur bros shitcanned RFP before Christmas and he’s just keeping it quiet.

If in fact they originally gave him a free ride as the new, younger, hipster face of MacArthurville, he’s doing less than nothing, SM-wise, to earn it.

Do they have a publicly viewable student directory? We had a private one at my undergrad college, which we referred to as stalkernet. LOL 

I'm not finding an obvious one. 😞

Me, either, but then I lack your ninja investigative skills...

I do note that he’s not listed anywhere on the site...not even in the “Admissions Team” which would be a logical place to put an insincere schmoozer. I did a search on his last name and zilch.

But then I started to have an allergic reaction to so many smug middle-aged white guy faces and had to exit and clear my cookies. So to speak.

ETA: Five minutes on that site put 13+ MEG of cookies and tracking crap on my iPad. Euewwww....

I'm wondering if more and more schools are making them private--only accessible with a log-in. My friends and I were such little creeps with our stalkernet. The minute someone's name was mentioned, off we'd go for a peek! 😂

I believe he's said that his job is at the church, not at the seminary, actually. 

.And there he's probably just some kind of office flunky.

I've looked around there a bit, and as far as I can tell, all the members of the church staff they deign to mention are also elders of the church. There's a big page of photos of those guys and the ones who also hold paying jobs at the church have their jobs listed. (such as Jer's pal Mahoney)

But a church of that size is obviously going to have numerous office workers (many of them women) and maintenance staff and so on. And none of those people are even named on the website that I can see, let alone pictured. (which annoys me -- I'm used to churches where the whole staff is acknowledged because they do the work that keeps the organization functioning, day in and day out....but I digress.)

Anyway, I expect Jer's currently in that category, since his job is basically a student-aid job to give him walking-around money while he's in LA, I think. So since he's not an elder of the congregation, his name won't turn up.

I find it somewhat odd that he has a job at all.  I would think that he would need as much time as possible to study, especially with a toddler daughter.  Of course many people have worked and went to school at the same time, me included but we really do not know their true financial situation, but they make it appear as if they are quite well off, so why work when school is your number one priority?  It could be he just enjoys working...   Could the job be some sort of requirement of his program?  Could it be connected to the housing they have been given?

As there is ZERO evidence that he either works or studies, I suspect they call it some form of Work Study thing that goes with his scholarship, just like the freebie housing.

I just wonder how long this whole cushy setup can last. Unless Jer’s doing an amazingly stealthy and thorough job of kissing MacArthur’s behind when he’s not playing with Instagram, I just can’t see it. Especially since guys like MacArthur usually want their beneficence acknowledged loudly, publicly and frequently.

I either forgot or didn't know Jer was working at the school.

I know we only see pic here and there and Jer really could be devoting a lot of time to school and work. I managed to complete my Master's as a mom/wife and work a full-time job. I'm guessing he can manage school and dining out. But what is odd is he never mentions school at all.

If it's because Influencers should be neutral, it's a little to late for that. In addition to Jinger's Fundy status, Jeremy's is out there too.

Someone needs to ask him how his studies are going on SM.

Yeah, I think the job may be connected to the housing, ostensibly at least. I don't think the housing was any kind of official thing. I've read through their handbook and looked around the website and nothing I've seen says anything either about the school helping students afford LA housing or about the existence of any kind of campus jobs or work-study.

But I expect that, since MacArthur apparently arranged for the free housing, he may have given Jer a job at the church -- and portrays it as what Jer's doing to earn the house, should anyone inquire -- so people can't complain that he's getting a house for nothing except being the big boy's little pet.

Playing favorites -- including by directing money to people for no reason except that they're his bros -- is one of the many things complaining students, faculty and alumni have stressed about MacArthur.  And WASC definitely recognized those complaints. So I would think he'd have to be a little careful right now to avoid having any of his faves appear to get something that no other students get -- and to get it for nothing.

I find it odd that we don’t hear anything about RFP doing any sort of preaching these days. Many years ago I attended divinity school (not to be a minister) and all of the students in the ministry program did guest preaching or something similar. It’s interesting to me that ever since he left his church in Laredo, we rarely hear anything about him doing any kind of ministry work.

They did go to Florida several months back and he did a preaching gig, but crickets after that.  Of course, he thinks that he is an expert and probably feels he should be the one teaching the classes.

After their move to LA, his social media presence barely reveals that he was/is or is going to be a pastor.  I was expecting much more fanfare about his courses, studying and using his God-given gifts.

It is SOP in our synod that the seminarians spend the Christmas holidays and part of summer working on their pastoral skills. Which includes counseling parishioners and ministering to the disabled and elderly.

Then, if qualified, they are placed in a year long Vicar position based on their current skill level.  And after all that, they still have to be called by a congregation to serve as their pastor.  I am beyond clueless about how this works with Jer's career goal of what???

I want to add that I didn't  realize he is already 32, two plus years older than my oldest nephew.  My nephew is now well established in his career and recently upgraded from a condo to a house.  I guess not being an influencer can be a better career track.

Have we ever heard about him doing any kind of ministry work? (Not just joke, but I'm seriously asking.)

Nope, but that doesn't mean he isn't doing it.  The last thing a pastor should do is broadcast his ministering to the public.  He may actually be bright enough to know this.

He had no problem posting religious stuff on social media before he moved to LA but has dialed it down. Ministers post plenty on social media - including RFP’s favorite, McArthur.

It doesn't look like they're going anywhere. 

And no, we haven't heard anything about RFP's ministry work since he started school, other than that one gig he had that was mentioned above. That, however, didn't seem to have anything to do with the Master's Seminary.

Which fits with my theory -- which is that while he courted an invitation from MacArthur to go the LA seminary he secretly (maybe even secretly from himself) went to LA mainly for the purpose of getting to LA....and, as a result of getting to LA, becoming some kind of famous media guy.

...A famous media minister, if absolutely necessary, but preferably one who has to do as little ministering as possible except for show-offy ministering......and -- in his biggest dreams -- some other non-ministerial kind of famous person -- who'd have to work less and get to flaunt his charms in front of the general public via the media much more.

School starts next week, but someone in the comments said that they couldn't wait to hear him speak at G3 ( in Atlanta, IIRC) next week.

This'll be his third year there, I think? So that's his minist-ery thing. He only speaks to large crowds that come from a distance to hear him.

I'm shocked that there are women in the roster.

Two of them, Peace and Jankovic, write books in slightly different flavors telling women to stay in their place. (I'm pretty sure they're mainly there to speak to separate sessions attended only by the accompanying wives...)

The third one -- Stuckey -- is basically a conservative political commentator who probably appeals to this group because she's under 30, female and blond, all of which they like in women generally but especially in conservative political commentators. She pretends to dislike sexism, but I'd hate to think what she actually means by that. ....

Is he serious? He's the guy posting staged pictures and trying to make a career as an influencer and he's calling out people for being fake on social media. 

Also, he's only friends with these guys because they're rich and letting him live in their house for free.

 

And the worst part is, he imagines we'll think he means all this bull and consider it a sermon we should take to heart since it's coming from such a role model.

....Well, no, I guess the worst part is that an alarming number of people will think he means all this bull and will consider it a sermon they should take to heart since it's coming from such a role model. 

Also: I think he's auditioning for modeling agencies again in this shot.

Several times or more he has done a “sermon” on Instagram stories on Sunday mornings before church. I haven’t made it through any of them, but that’s the only pastoral type post I’ve seen from him since moving to LA

I really believe that the personality can make a troll look like Heidi Klum, and vice versa, but looks-wise, Jinger is a strong 7.   Personality brings her to an 8, but her trying to impress Jeremy brings her back to a 7.  She needs to deepen the brown and get some honey highlights or balayage to warm her up.  Jeremy would do well with a brown paper Kroger bag over his head.
