We have another instance of a registered sex offender being used in a leadership position at a United Pentecostal Church.
Bradford “Brad” William Spacek, born October 6, 1966, was convicted of lewd or lascivious acts with a child under 14 and the 2014 charge involved one victim and was due to at least three incidents between 1999 and 2002 according to a news report. At the time of his charges, Brad Spacek was a freshman teacher at Chavez High School in California.
It has been shared that he used to attend Christian Life Center years back, but presently is involved at another United Pentecostal Church, Lighthouse of the Valley, also in Stockton, where Michael Delgado is pastor. There may be many attending this church who are unaware of his past criminal record.
According to the church’s website, Brad Spacek is part of the single adult leadership team and has spoken at their annual single adult conferences, the last being held in August 2025. He has also preached at the church at least once, on October 30, 2024. Attached are screenshots showing some of his involvement.
It is always concerning when any church uses a convicted sex offender in any type of leadership role or preaching capacity. A pastor is unwise to allow this. Has Spacek been permitted to be around children at the church? Have members and visitors been made aware of him being on the registry? If you are a parent of a minor and are a member or are visiting this church, you need to be aware of this situation.
