Multiple sexual-misconduct allegations surfaced this week against Christian comedian John Crist, and now Netflix has pulled the plug on his debut stand-up special

Late last month, Netflix announced that it had added a stand-up special from comedian and YouTuber John Crist titled I Ain’t Prayin’ for That.
Multiple sexual-misconduct allegations against Crist surfaced this week from five anonymous women in a report published at the Christian Charisma magazine site. Crist rose to fame making YouTube videos aimed at a Christian audience, and now he boasts over 2 million Facebook followers, 500,000 YouTube subscribers, 1.2 million Instagram followers, and nearly 200,000 followers on Twitter.
According to the Charisma report, Crist “has exploited his Christian reputation and platform to harass, manipulate and exploit young women over the last seven years,” with allegations including “individually sexting multiple women during the same time period, initiating sexual relationships with married women and women in committed relationships, offering show tickets in exchange for sexual favors and repeatedly calling these women late at night while drunk.
While Charisma’s report notes that the multiple allegations leveled against Crist aren’t criminal, it decided to publish them because the comedian is often booked at Christian venues, and some may have known about his behavior. “Some evidence suggests certain Christian leaders have been aware of Crist’s behavior and — through inaction — let it continue unchecked,” the report claims. “We believe pastors and leaders who book Crist at their ministry events need to know the person they’re signing.
Crist released a lengthy statement to Charisma in response to the allegations yesterday, claiming that while not all of the allegations are true, he is guilty of what he describes as “destructive and sinful” behavior.
