Black Church News: More Black Pastors Condemn 'Preachers of L.A.': Why?




Let us ask you this important question, Why are a lot of pastors always trying to cover dirt behind the pulpit?   We don't feel many of these pastors want 'Preachers in LA' off, because it doesn't properly represent them, but it's showing what's real.  Specifically the black church has always covered up all types of sins they commit, but just focus on sinners out in the world.  

According to BlackChristianNews.com, the Rev. Michael J.T. Fisher, pastor at the Greater Zion Church Family in Compton, Calif., joined Perkins in criticizing the show, which broke records for the Oxygen network with its premiere episode on Oct. 9. "I don't have a problem with them doing a reality show," he was quoted as saying. "I have a problem with the content that's displayed."

Of course, we believe there maybe be two or three pastors on 'Preachers in LA' for show, but there are some serious issues a few of them are dealing with.  As we've said before, we admire Bishop Ron Gibson who reached out to feuding gang leaders. Then, there's a situation with Pastor Haizlip and his wife ministering to a transgendered man.  You see, this type of caption can lead more souls into the church.  So, what are they ashamed of?  Why are they trying to cover up, because Pastor Deitrick Haddon is being real and showing who he really is?  Are the worried that Bishop Noel Jones talking about having a woman would make people focus on what they could be doing behind close doors?  These preachers need to stop the hypocrisy and just start being real, because if they keep covering up their dirt, more sinners will stay away from the church.

Pastor Deitrick Haddon says there's nothing wrong with Shacking on 'Preachers in LA'


On 'Preachers in LA', Pastor Deitrick Haddon debates with Bishop Ron Gibson about shacking and says it's no where in the Bible.   If you haven't watched the video, it's beneath our post and you will hear Pastor Haddon allegedly say he has been to Bible college.   Doesn't he know shacking is committing fornication?  It's a dangerous thing to be a pastor and not know the truth.

In our opinion, Pastor Haddon seems a little twisted, because on the previous episode, 'Comeback', he argued with Bishop McClendon saying that he and other preachers should not have an entourage.  However, he does not know that shacking with someone is a sin.   This guy needs spiritual counseling before he pastors anyone, simply because pastors are over lost souls and if he leads people into believing that lie, then he will be held accountable in judgement.  It was very scary to hear him say there's nothing wrong with shacking and it's no where in the Bible.   How can he preachers to sinners about salvation, if he doesn't know the truth and has been allegedly committing fornication?

Black Church News: Pastor Marvin Winans Refused to Bless Unmarried Woman's Baby Before Congregation?


Who would have thought someone from the "famous family of imperfection" would judge someone else?  Pastor Marvin Winans allegedly refused to dedicated an unwed mother's son, because she is unmarried.  First of all, we cannot understand someone from the Winans clan saying such a thing since their gospel music hasn't been so holy among other previous family problems will not discuss here.  However, one question comes to mind, is Perfecting church for perfect people?    

Let us share this with you, Sanctified Church Revolution is outraged and cannot understand why Pastor Marvin Winans and his church has allegedly treated this woman like as an outcast.  Just because his parents were married for many years, does not mean the Winans are a perfect family.  His mother allegedly admitted on a televised interview that there were problems in her marriage with the late 'Pop' Winans.  Also, if you have a church in the midst of a black dominated city like Detroit, how can you deny black mothers who have had black father turn their backs on their children?  Is Pastor Marvin Winans blind to this ancient problem within the black community that has hurt many single black mothers across America? Does he think-the Winans family is so perfect they cannot show love to single mothers who have never got a blessing of a wedding proposal from sorry Dads who impregnate women and don't care to marry them?  How dare Pastor Marvin Winans? Even Jesus Christ himself went so far to love prostitutes and women who had several men at one time.  Jesus Christ loved all type of people and never threw stones at anyone.   We bet he's like a lot of pastors in the church who embrace black men who are drug dealers, beat their women around the clock and leave them for other women, but look down on single black women, lesbians, prostitutes and other woman who have made mistakes.  Shame on him and shame on Perfecting Church that's not perfect!  We bet if we could go into any his church member's closets, including the Winans family there would be skeletons of all sorts of sins like homosexuality, adultery, envy, strife, lust and all type of mess. 

According to ChristianPost.com, when Charity Grace heard that a special dedication service for children 2-years-old and younger is scheduled to take place at the church this Sunday, she rang up the church office on Tuesday to make sure her son wouldn't miss out on the blessing.  According to myfoxdetroit.com, Grace says she spoke with a woman who told her Pastor Winans' policy is that he is not to bless children of unwed mothers in front of his congregation. Pastor Marvin Winans declined to comment.
In the meantime, we will keep Charity Grace in our prayers and pray she finds another church that is more accepting to single mothers and their children.  May God bless her and her son, Joshua, what a beautiful little boy.

Pastor Ron Carpenter's Wife Apologizes for Causing Pain


It takes a strong person of faith to apologize when another person admits they have been hurt.  These days, there are many people whom profess Christ, but they don't care whenever someone is hurting from their offenses.  We think highly of Hope Carpenter, because she has apologized for causing her husband Pastor Ron Carpenter so much emotional distress and do doubt, within their congregation. 

According to ChristianPost.com, The megachurch pastor shared that both the Carpenter and Hilley families spent time talking with Mrs. Carpenter Tuesday for 45 hours and that his wife asked him to relay a message."She made me promise to let each of you know that she is sorry for any pain she may have caused and she received great joy in my assuring her of y'all's great love for her. I love each of you dearly and CAN NOT WAIT to see you... One day at a time..," read Carpenter's message from his wife.  

God can certainly heal this marriage, because Hope Carpenter has admitted she was wrong and apologized.  In general, God can never heal broken families, broken friendships or broken marriages, except when everyone admits they were wrong, keep that in mind and God bless all of you.

In the meantime, we will keep Pastor Ron and Hope Carpenter in our prayers.  God bless them both.

Woman Files Lawsuit Against InterVarsity Christian Fellowship Saying She Was Fired Because of Her Divorce

According to ChristianPost.com, other plans for Smith's service include featuring many of the early pastors and musicians who were influenced by the preacher, some who had made commitments to be followers of Jesus Christ while worshipping under the big circus tent that had been erected on the CCCM property during the Jesus People movement, according to ASSIST News Service. Pastors like Laurie, Jeff Johnson, Mike MacIntosh and Skip Heitzig now lead some of the largest churches in the U.S.

Bishop Wellington Boone Says the Civil Rights Movement Divided Black Family From the Church

In the 21st century, we don't hear of too many black preachers speaking on black issues, so we appreciate the Bishop Wellington Boone's honesty.  He allegedly stated civil rights damaged the black family and from the church. In so many words and we agree with him.   In our opinion, civil rights does not focus on God, so no wonder we are yet seeing a lot of problems among black people.

According to Black Christian News, it is possible for black Christians to be truly conservative yet not lose their "blackness"; because if you have political aspirations, you will need your "blackness" to gain the support and votes of black and brown people. The truth of the matter is, there are many white conservatives who don't believe that Obamacare is the worse thing since slavery, or that the Civil Rights movement caused the breakdown of the African-American family. 

In the meantime, we pray for many more African American ministers to be more honest.

Bishop T. D. Jakes allegedly calls 'Preachers of LA,' "Junk"


Bishop T. D. Jakes is really showing who he is as a man of God and thank God for his honesty.   Bishop Jakes allegedly does not agree with the show, as we heard once before.   We used to think of him as a celebrity preachers, because a lot of his associates have been celebrities, but we are beginning to see him in a different light.   Why?  He allegedly called 'Preachers of LA' 'Junk'.

According to BlackChristianNews.com, on Sunday morning, October 13 at the Potter's House in Dallas, TX, Jakes dissed the reality show, calling it "junk" and distancing himself from the stars' blinged-out images and flamboyance.

Although we do agree with Bishop T. D. Jakes, we still say a lot of damage within the (black) church has already been done with all of the fame and fortune and if the Devil wants to show what goes on behind the scene, let people see it.

Black Church News: Harlem Pastors want to Dethrone Rev. Al Sharpton as Civil Rights Activist, we agree


We don't feel Rev. Al Sharpton has changed because he's gotten older, we feel he has failed his duty as an activist, because he could be afraid of what President Obama will say if he makes the wrong move.  Let's be very honest, Rev. Al Sharpton is not the man he used to be.  He used to care about the needs of the black community and was very courageous whenever he spoke to the press.   

These days, he's the host of his own television program, 'Political Nation' and hasn't even been heard much on his own radio program at the National Action Network.   We never thought we would say this, but in our opinion, Rev. Al Sharpton has become a scary puppet.  Furthermore, he seems to care more for the homosexual community than the black community.   Now, doesn't that say something about his immoral character as a minister? 

According to ChristianPost.com, the ministers, who expect about 1,500 people to show up for the event, said Sharpton is nothing more than a personality who has been spending more time promoting his new book, The Rejected Stone and his show on MSNBC.  Not only that, but since he's lost weight and allegedly has been dating a younger woman, he seems to be putting on airs.    

In the meantime, we hope and pray Rev. Al Sharpton will be very honest with the black community and admit he has not been as strong as he used to be when facing certain issues.

Out-of-Control SUV Plows Over Kids at NY Church Fundraiser; 1 Killed, 3 Injured


Saints of God, this teenager who was driving a jeep was killed when an SUV plunged into a group of children.  You maybe wondering why there are so many fatal accidents occurring among the saints of God, but only He understands the reason.  However, God wants us to remain prayed up, sisters and brothers. You know, how the Bible tells us to pray without ceasing in 1 Thessalonians 5:17.   

The average modern day preacher will call it mental illness to always pray or say, we don't have to pray so long, ignore them, because they are ignorant.  Too many tragedies have been happening for a reason and it could be because the church has become to modern, but of course, we are not blaming the deceased and injured victims. 

According to ChristianPost.com, the incident occurred on Friday night as the car was exiting a parking lot on McLean Avenue near Coyne Park where a Roman Catholic church, St. Paul the Apostle, was holding an annual fundraiser outdoors, NBC reported.

HIV Pastor of St. Ignatius of Antioch Catholic Church arrested for soliciting sex at Edgewater Park


Rev. James McGonegal has been arrested for soliciting sex in a Cleveland park.  We've heard of so many previous tragedies with these preachers going to parks to solicit sex.  We ask you sisters and brothers in Christ, why do they still do it.  What so bad about Rev. McGonegal, he informed police after he was arrested that he is HIV?  So, was he seeking someone to infect with his disease, HIV?

According to Cleveland.com, McGonegal, 68, has been pastor at the Catholic church at Lorain Avenue and West Boulevard since into the 1980s, according to records of the Cleveland Catholic Diocese. He has been a priest since 1971.

We sincerely hope this pastor gets some spiritual counseling, so he will no longer solicit sex, but also because he is infected with the AIDS virus, allegedly.

Black Church News: HIV Pastor Spotted On Popular Black Dating Website

After allegedly infecting many woman with HIV, this pastor, Rodney Carr is still on a popular dating site, possibly seeking more individuals.  We want to say many of your preachers in the black church ought to be ashamed of yourselves for infecting women and men in your congregations.  How can you claim to be a man of God and sexually violate those whom look up to you as their shepherd? 

It's so sad to know Rodney Carr has already infected over 100 women.   Just think of how many other pastors and bishops could be infecting many women in the black church?  Since AIDS has been a plague within the black community, it seems like these pastors in the black church would stop spreading their disease, but there are many like Carr who would rather share it and put many women and men whom are fond of them in misery like themselves.


According to NewsOne.com, on a routine gynecological visit, the woman’s physician reportedly suggested an HIV test. When she reportedly received her results, she knew Carr had infected her. According to the woman, the 47-year-old preacher never told her he was HIV positive. The woman claims she trusted Carr, because he is a minister.  

In the meantime, you women be careful out there, never get so desperate you have to move ahead of God and seek a man to be in your life.  You may be the next victim of an HIV/AIDS killer like Pastor Carr, allegedly.

Pastor Hosts Bible Study Group Over Beer In a Bar: Is God Pleased?


Rev. John Donnelly, a pastor in Connecticut had bible study in a bar while drinking beer, allegedly.  The pastor decided that people would choose to meet in a bar, rather than church.  In our opinion, if they are hungry for God's Word, they would not mind stepping in a church.  You don't have to trick people into hearing God's Word and there is no excuse to sip beer.  We wonder if this pastor pray before making this unwise decision.

According to blackchristiannews.com, Rev. John Donnelly conducted a men's Bible study similar to this when he was co-rector with his wife, the Rev. Ellen Donnelly, at a church in New Jersey. There, Donnelly had it in the living room of his home, which was next door to the church. He couldn't host it at his home this time because he lives in Southbury, and he wanted it in the center of Oxford and not in church.   

We deeply feel God is not pleased with anyone drinking alcohol beverages while drinking beer, especially those whom preach the gospel of Jesus Christ or just proclaim salvation.   We pray for Pastor Donnelly, but we feel he's in error.

Celebrity News: Deion Sanders: Accused. Fired. Rehired again


It's very surprising to learn that Prime Prep Academy is not listed as Deion Sanders' school.  We discovered this, after finding out he has been rehired by school officials, after being accused of allegedly choking one of the employees.  Possibly, Deion Sanders will become a changed person, after being given another chance at Prime Prep Academy. 

According to WFAA.com, the firing was supported in a statement issued Friday morning by the Prime Prep Chairman of the Board of Trustees, T. Christopher Lewis, and in another statement attributed to Superintendent Rachel M. King-Sanders.    

In the meantime, we'll keep Deion Sanders in our prayers.

Kentucky Pastor arrested in Danville triple murder

A relative of Pastor Allen Keith think he was possibly framed and we believe it could be true. He is accused of robbing and killing three people at a thrift store. No matter how many pastors commit sin, it does not mean all of them are no good.  Therefore, we have to give each and every situation the benefit of the doubt, especially if evidence proves they could set up by someone.

According to wkyt.com,  Keith is minister in Burnside and a manager of a Somerset business, Gold Rush Gold Buyers.

In the meantime, we are praying that Pastor Allen Keith repents if he is guilty, but if not, God will work it out and he will be set free.  May all of three of these victims rest in peace. He was the pastor of Main Street Baptist Church.
