Officially, Jonathan Shelley is named as the head pastor; however, it appears the church's day-to-day operations are handled by "Brother" Dillon Austin Awes. 

Brother Dillon made global headlines when he delivered a sermon proclaiming the final solution to the LGTBQAI+ community was death. Awe said that they ("homosexuals") should be "lined up in the street and shot in the back of the head."

In a Christian Nationalist's wet dream sequence, Stedfast Baptist Church, the parent church of Pure Words (Houston), edited parts of Awe's sermon "Why we won't shut up" with clips from Michael Redford's 1984 adaptation of Orwell's 1984.

As global condemnation for Awe's sermon grew, he became more extreme and declared a "Jihad on the infidels persecuting Stedfast Baptist Church."
