An 84-year-old radio preacher is arrested for sexual misbehavior, kidnapping and burglary. Ralph Gordon Stair’s “Overcomer Ministry” says it’s based at a “small farm in the state of South Carolina,” and the radio show that bought time on more than two-dozen U.S. stations helped draw listeners to live on his 130-acre compound. The Charleston Post and Courier says Stair’s being held without bail “after multiple women came forward with sex assault allegations dating as far back as 1992.” Some of the alleged incidents happened in the radio studio. Also in “mobile homes and during a sermon.” The preacher styled himself “Brother Stair” and (says the paper) had members of the ministry “surrender their possession and often sever contact with people outside the compound, as they await” the Second Coming. The Stairs theology was built around “the soon return of the Lord Jesus Christ.” Stairs was also heard internationally on short-wave radio.
