29th May 2026 – Lighthouse Friday Update – Christian Hacking Confesses Toxic Motives for Journalism

Lighthouse Daily – 29th May 2026…


Good day, fellow citizens and brothers and sisters in Christ.

Today’s update is about a 10-minute read.

In this update:

  • What happens when God’s constitution is attacked?
  • Christian Hacking confesses his toxic and destructive motives for journalism.
  • More BBC staff are calling out the BBC for the toxic cult it is!

1. Our Personal, Interpersonal & Global Commission from Christ: The Problems We Face and Solutions Needed — When God’s Constitution is Attacked

“Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will never pass away.” — Matthew 24:35

This week, we have been exploring the reality, the importance and the incredible power of God’s eternal and infinite constitution, founded in His Spirit.

We urgently need to grow in our love and relationship with His Constitution.

Jesus has told us time and again that many will come to try to distort, manipulate and attack God’s constitution.

So what happens when people try to attack it?

The truth is unbreakable.

Logic is undeniable.

Love is eternal and infinite.

So when someone tries to debunk or attack it, they will break themselves against it.

We are all guilty of this in our own souls when we disobey God, or try illegitimate “shortcuts” to get our own way, even for a brief moment, thinking we will get away with it, but we never do!

But there are those who wilfully want to try to break apart how we perceive God’s constitution. We are seeing this happen all around the world, flowing from the top-tier Establishment all the way down.

Check out this powerful clip from our brother in Christ, Avery Austin Jr (@GodLogic).

2. Targeted from Within: The Greatest Threats to the Body of Christ from Inside — Christian Hacking Confesses Toxic Motives for Journalism

““Woe to the shepherds who are destroying and scattering the sheep of My pasture!” declares the Lord.” — Jeremiah 23:1

Yesterday, we showed how Christian Hacking’s confirmation bias left him wide open to the BBC deception — and galvanised him into targeting Paul S. Waugh and Lighthouse Global.

Just as Judas felt he had the backing of the Pharisees, Mr Hacking has chosen to believe and side with the BBC rather than the truth. In this case, the truth of who Lighthouse Global are.

What does Confirmation Bias mean?
  • Confirmation bias is the tendency to acquire or evaluate new information in a way that is consistent with one’s preexisting beliefs.

    Paul has expanded on the National Institutes of Health definition following his research into human beings and their potential over the last 20 plus years.

    Confirmation bias is when someone “needs” a particular conclusion to be true (because of their interests, fears, or incentives), so they organise their thoughts, emotions, and evidence-picking around that outcome, ignoring or resisting anything that would threaten it.

Yesterday also saw Mr Hacking officially cease his (failed) efforts to target and arrogantly judge other Christians for their conduct. These attempts were under the guise of a Christian journalist. As he wrote;

“…regrettably I will be closing down my personal substack over the coming days.

While this was certainly not my plan A, it is I believe the most honourable thing I can do considering my higher calling: to be a good husband, father and son, and business owner.

No matter the motives, personal mistakes and malevolence that has got me to this point I must trust God is in full control…

As much as I love writing, observing, critiquing, fight picking and lime light chasing clearly I haven’t yet mastered a way by which to do this in harmony with other pursuits. Nor properly addressed why I like so much the final two verbs on that list. I sense this is part of my climb down season. The goal is upward to the rock of Christ. But the route for now is down.”

Toxic Attention Seeking

If Mr Hacking is to truly “climb down”, that will include humility, repentance and contrition.

Yet what is especially notable here about Mr Hacking’s comments is how he says he loves “fight picking and lime light chasing”.

This is a self-identified Christian who publicly, unashamedly says he loves picking fights and chasing the limelight.

In other words, this is a very small child, still craving attention —notably from his father —and will even start fights to do so.

More concerning, by his own admission, he doesn’t even know why he craves such attention. Almost certainly, because he is unwilling to look inside his own soul.

He has made clear he does not want mentoring or support, yet he is a mystery to himself due to the lack of his self-examination.

He knows if he were to really look within, that would include challenging his deeply held, unhealthy and anti-Christ beliefs about himself, his father and his family.

What happened to being a “servant of Christ”, as he called himself?

This, by his own account, is actually an admission of a very old infant who has tried to parade as a Christian journalist. In other words, a false angel of light.

He has not used that responsibility to come closer to God.

He has instead used it to build his own inflated ego, and failed —which is why he needs to “climb down” now.

We know from our own experiences that part of his fight-picking and limelight-chasing was done at the expense of the Christian community at Lighthouse Global, notably Paul S. Waugh, among other targets of his.

Damning Absence of Correcting His Own Record

Mr Hacking displays a toxic and diabolical trait very akin to his beloved BBC Director Generals, who run and abandon ship as soon as heinous wrongdoings are irreversibly brought to public awareness.

No responsibility. No contrition. No apologies. No attempt to make his wrongs right.

He may feel some sense of reactive remorse, as Judas himself did for his betrayal of Christ, but there was no genuine repentance with Judas.

We do not know if Mr Hacking is repentant, but there have been no overt signs of this yet.

Since Mr Hacking is not surprisingly choosing to ignore and turn his back on his responsibility, we will continue to hold him accountable for his heinous wrongdoing.

In the coming days and weeks, we will correct the record publicly to explain exactly where we believe he ought to repent and make his wrongs right.

Our Continued Concern for Christian Hacking and His Family

We have all, especially Paul, been extremely concerned about Mr Hacking and his family. His mental faculties and lack of discernment have been very disturbing to us. This has manifested on a number of occasions through his amateur journalism; making damaging and abhorrent mistakes, not correcting them, acting as if he is judge, jury and executioner over bold, courageous and deeply committed Christian men like Paul S. Waugh.

Our hope and prayer is that he can use this time to reconcile himself with God, repent for his mistakes, take the time to make amends within his own family for the disrepute he has brought upon them, and truly grow in the Spirit of Christ.

As he has said himself, he wants to prioritise this time “to be a good husband, father and son”. We sincerely hope he does so and we will be praying for that to happen — and not just “good”, but the best possible husband, father and son he can be, rooted and founded in God’s Constitution.

We are relieved and grateful if Mr Hacking will be looking more inward to set his own house in order instead of picking fights and chasing the limelight.

Holding Mr Hacking so publicly accountable in the last month has been the last thing we wanted to do; we earnestly wanted to believe he was a Christian brother who wanted to support us, and we still hope for the possibility that he is a brother in Christ.

We have done so in order to correct the record fully and comprehensively, yes, about Lighthouse Global, but for the wider Body of Christ.

Whether the public record is distorted and violated by a so-called Christian journalist or an agent from the kingdom of darkness directly, it does not matter. The truth must be corrected about any Christian who has been smeared and lied about at the severe cost of their reputation, health and livelihood.

In the coming days, we will continue our ongoing study into the Judas syndrome through Mr Hacking and his family. We will further examine the Masonic and BBC cults to educate fellow brothers and sisters in Christ.

Mr Hacking and his family remain in our heartfelt prayers.

3. Targeted from the Outside: How The Establishment Persecutes us Christians – Former BBC Producer Says The BBC Has Become a Secular Cult

“Woe to those who enact evil statutes and to those who constantly record unjust decisions.” — Isaiah 10:1

Earlier this week, we brought you the news of former director of BBC News and Current Affairs, Fran Unsworth, exposing the BBC for its toxic bias and prejudicial culture.

Today, we share with you comments from former BBC Producer David Keighley on the more pervasive reality of what the BBC has become.

“The BBC’s editorial culture has become a secular priesthood or cult with a worldview so uniform that it can no longer perceive its own prejudice. From Brexit to Trump, from climate to Gaza, it preaches one moral narrative and damns dissent as heresy. Now the deceit has been exposed from within, and the high priests have fled the altar.

This is a time for reckoning. The BBC’s failure is not merely institutional: it is constitutional. A state-mandated broadcaster that manipulates political reality has betrayed the democratic trust on which it was built.”

We have long known that the BBC is actually a cult, and far worse than what Mr Kayleigh has explained here.

You can watch our full introduction to our documentary series, which we first released in June 2024, “Exposing The British Broadcasting Cult”, here.

Note: Given Paul’s longstanding ill health resulting from multiple Establishment attacks, the team generate these daily updates by drawing from recent and older meetings and transcripts that Paul has shared with us. Please keep him in your prayers as he rebuilds strength and renews in our Lord.


God bless,

Paul S. Waugh, Chris Nash and Shaun Cooper

Thank you for another thought-provoking update. I found it both sobering and reflective, particularly the reminder of how easily our motives can become mixed, even when we believe we’re serving a good cause. It’s encouraged me to examine my own heart more honestly and to seek God’s wisdom and truth above my own assumptions. Grateful for the work that goes into these updates.

It’s sad to see, but reading Mr Hacking’s “climb down” saying that it was the “most honourable” thing he could do really stuck out to me because the most honourable thing he could do would be to repent and make things right with Paul and Lighthouse. Not hiding away from the accountability. He apparently likes to start fights but doesn’t want to be around when he has to admit defeat. As Christ Himself said, “out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks”. Fascinating too to read the words of Mr Keighley. What we’re seeing is that time and again Lighthouse is being shown to be on point when it comes to calling things out for how they actually are.

I appreciate today’s update for the way it’s highlighting that the Christian life is one where we live with maturity, discernment and humility. I love the way that GodLogic used empathy and logic to confront a self-evident contradiction. He didn’t rely on subjective opinions for his argument… there was sound reasoning.

Meanwhile it’s quite a confession from Christian Hacking and certainly I’ll be praying for him to become the best possible husband, father and business owner. Yet at the same time his sheer lack of self-awareness, humility and maturity has come through how he’s invested the last year or so in relation to us at Lighthouse. What an opportunity he had to stand with us, be a brother in Christ, whilst also developing his character and competence. It’s actually really sad to see someone claiming to be a journalist and yet exercise poor discernment and then top it off with making basic spelling mistakes whilst closing off any possibilities of being helped.

Lastly, the BBC continues to dig its own hole and reveal itself as the very British Broadcasting Cult. The fact that it’s so blind that it can’t see its own bias is deeply disturbing, especially given its reach, influence and perceived credibility (that is eroding by the day).

Thank you. Whatever Christian Hacking’s real motivation is for closing down his personal Substack, his behaviour so far does not show a willingness to take responsibility for his actions or a genuine interest in making wrongs right.

I pray for him and that he may come to experience what it truly means to live as a real Christian, rather than using Christianity for personal benefit.

It is also fascinating to see former BBC employees beginning to speak out about wrongdoing within the organisation. The public deserves transparency about what is happening inside the BBC, given its significant influence on public opinion.

Ultimately, we can only build something sustainable if we accept and follow God’s constitution. Our children and the vulnerable deserve that we provide the strongest possible foundation for their lives. God bless.

On one hand I’m relived Christian Hacking has chosen not to continue trying to pick fights and chase the limelight. His admission and confession is frankly disturbing and concerning though. He’s someone who’s legally gleefully admitting he wants to get attention from his audiences. Nothing there about actually serving Christ or the vulnerable as far as I can see. It’s really worrying as to what his cognitive state is and how he can be so worryingly remiss of any sense or admission of wrongdoing towards Lighthouse Global, Paul S. Waugh and other Christians. I therefore see the need to continue correcting the record.

David Kayleigh sounds like he’s seen the BBC cult first hand and has a lot more to say on the reality behind the facade.

What is screaming out to me, rooted underneath all of this, is separation from God. In the name of it, he isn’t it, and increasingly so he is becoming separated from God. He’s acting as someone who is not walking with Christ, as those behaviours are more closely linked to Satan and the satanic.

As you pointed out, self-examination is missing. The navigation system directing him, and us, back towards God is faulty or non-existent. Not being repentant is major, and I feel for him. He’ll be accountable on Judgement Day.

Thank you for sharing how Mr Hacking is climbing down from journalism. First and foremost, he needs to work on his relationship with Christ and through that, he will become the husband and father that he needs to be for his family. His admission that he seeks the limelight goes to prove his childish ways, as you have clearly pointed out. I pray that he can and will repent for his actions, make things right and become a true brother in Christ.

I value your daily updates, helping me and all of us to see the extent of what is happening to Mr Hacking and the BBC. God bless us all, and I pray that He continues to grace you and all of us with His strength and conviction to stand up for what is right…Amen

Crucial update on both Mr Hacking and the BBC.
I’m glad to hear that Mr Hacking is prioritising his family and connection to God, but a full and clear apology is still needed.
This lack of apology is eveidence with the BBC as well. They have betrayed the country and the Christian morals that built it, yet no apology, no care or repentance is ever seen from them.
Again, the BBC needs to be reformed from the ground up.

I love God Logic using logic to demonstrate the fallacy of needing to say one is someone, in order to actually be that someone. It shows the extent to which atheists or those who are anti-Christian to deny the truth.

Wow, Mr Kayleigh is saying what we have experienced of the BBC. An actual cult that believes it is superior and just while actually being dark and unjust.

I pray for Mr Hacking and it is an incredibly sad situation which ought to have been avoided in the first place by him.

This is very strange for Mr Hacking although sadly not out of character with what we have seen. He writes this and yet still hasn’t apologised or tried to make it right in any way. I pray he stop burying his head in the sand and actually takes Paul up on his idea to debate live.

There is a lot to take from this update, firstly that we must be self-examining to test that we are in the faith and we must also be seeking accountability and rebuke from others we call brothers and sisters in Christ, so we can grow closer to Christ…our Saviour’s return is imminent and we will all be held accountable to our obedience to Christ and treatment of everyone and especially those in the household of faith.

And this is where Christian Hacking has done himself and his family, a great disservice by refusing to heed the many truths we have revealed to him about his character and addressing them. His announcement seems to be more about toxic attention seeking rather than an honest acknowledgement and reflection of where he is and why.

Like the BBC, he and his Dad, have praised, his announcement and decision, feels to be more about being a victim despite revealing where his heart condition actually is – a fight picker and a limelight chaser. This time ought to be a time for reflection on his very poor choices rooted in his unsavoury character.
