Official Statement Regarding Rippaverse and the ISOM Name

Tuesday, April 8, 2025

It has come to the attention of the Board of Directors of Good Shepherd Ministries, International that a ministry employee recently responded to certain inquiries regarding the organization’s former lawsuit against Rippaverse and Mr. July. The Board of Good Shepherd Ministries, International apologizes for any misinformation caused by that employee’s response.

We wish to clarify that Good Shepherd Ministries, International has no authority to restrict Rippaverse from continuing its Isom-titled series. Any statements suggesting otherwise are inaccurate and were not authorized by the governing board of our Good Shepherd Ministries, International.

We recognize that there are individuals seeking to discredit Rippaverse and Mr. July, and we are committed to being more vigilant in the future. The comments made concerning the Isom character and any future Rippaverse publications were made in error and do not reflect the official position of our organization.

We hold Rippaverse and Mr. July in the highest regard and sincerely wish them continued success in all future endeavors.
