How Pressure From Dag Heward Mills Church To Raise Funds Allegedly Caused A Pastor To Attempt Suicide 3 Times

A former Pastor of the Lighthouse Chapel International, Seth Duncan has recounted how pressure from the headquarters of the Church to raise funds forced him into depression, and how he cut his scrotum at a point in a 3rd suicide attempt.

Reverend Seth Duncan is one of six former Pastors of the Lighthouse Chapel who have resigned and are suing the Church for various alleged infractions including non-payment of their SSNIT contributions.

In an explosive report by the fourth estate, Reverend Seth Duncan narrated how a BECOME WHAT YOU CAN BECOME (BWYCB) policy by his Church spurred him on to pour in his personal resources into the building of the Lighthouse chapel at Paga in the upper east region.

Rev. Seth Duncan said his efforts to build these churches came with great sacrifice and nearly cost his life. One night, while returning on his motorbike from a mission field where he had gone to start a new branch, he nearly drowned in a river.

The former seaman said but for the grace of God and his swimming skills, he would certainly have died.

After all his toils in putting up churches in the Upper East Region, Seth Duncan said he was not allowed to manage any of the three churches he had built. He was transferred.

To make matters worse, Rev. Duncan said he was met with hostile responses anytime he tried to express his grievances to the management of the church.

After nearly a decade in the ministry, Seth Duncan said his marriage broke down, and he and his wife had to go their separate ways.

He said he became depressed and grew suicidal.

For a man who had given up a career in the Ghanaian Navy to pursue the business of the cross, his trials and the subsequent collapse of his marriage led him to attempt suicide 3 times.

According to him, he even cut his scrotum at a point.
