Betrayal in the Pulpit: The Scandal Surrounding John-Paul Miller

Murder In The Morning | Daily True Crime News

A new lawsuit has been filed against South Carolina pastor John-Paul Miller and his father, Reginald Wayne Miller, accusing them of sexual abuse, predatory conduct, and using their church as a shield for misconduct spanning decades. The allegations have gained renewed attention following the tragic suicide of John-Paul’s wife, Mica Miller, last spring.
According to the lawsuit, in 1998, when Miller was 19, he allegedly sexually assaulted a 15-year-old girl at All Nations Church, where his father served as pastor. The complaint states that Miller lured the girl into his father’s office before taking her outside to his truck, where the assault allegedly took place.
The lawsuit asserts that the Millers carefully crafted an image of religious leadership while privately engaging in abusive behavior. Church leadership was allegedly aware of John-Paul’s history of legal troubles, a child born out of wedlock, and a pattern of reckless conduct, yet failed to intervene.
The same woman, identified as "Jane Doe," claims that in 2023, she encountered Miller again in Myrtle Beach, where he allegedly assaulted her a second time. When confronted, Miller reportedly attempted to justify his actions by referencing scripture, saying, "No man is without sin and temptation. God understands that."
The lawsuit alleges that church leaders neglected their duty to protect members, despite being aware of misconduct.
John-Paul Miller has been under scrutiny since his wife, Mica Miller, died by suicide on April 27, 2023. Just two days prior, she had filed for divorce. Her body was discovered with a self-inflicted gunshot wound in Lumber River State Park, North Carolina. Prior to her death, Mica had reported to police that she was being tracked. Investigators later confirmed that John-Paul and a woman he was allegedly involved with were not in Robeson County at the time.
Following her death, John-Paul was arrested in November for assault and battery after a confrontation with protesters outside his church, Solid Rock at Common Market. That same month, the FBI searched his Myrtle Beach home, though details of the investigation remain undisclosed.
The lawsuit also raises concerns about the financial dealings of the Millers and their ministries. As legal battles escalate and public scrutiny intensifies, John-Paul Miller’s once-respected reputation continues to unravel.
