The story Jeff Kaplan never wanted you to hear is finally here.
For 16 years, Jeff Kaplan and the elders of Shepherd of the Hills Church in Tehachapi, CA, have kept a secret. Before Shepherd of the Hills existed, there was Bear Valley Church, and a bitter community split in Bear Valley Springs that tore it apart.
In this video, I uncover the buried history that Jeff Kaplan doesn’t want you to know. History that is relevant to the congregation and their money, faith, and trust in SOTH.
In Part 1, I reveal:
The accusations that forced Jeff Kaplan out of Bear Valley Church
The disturbing comments that caused the elder board to demand Jeff Kaplan’s resignation
The connection between the allegations from 2010 and 2026
The congregation has never been told this story. The donors have never been told. The people sitting in the pews are unaware that today’s behavior is a continuation of yesterday’s pattern.
It is time to unearth the truth.
“So have no fear of them; for nothing is concealed that will not be revealed, or kept secret that will not become known.” – Matthew 10:26
