Bishop Noel Jones Is Finally Getting Married To Longtime Girlfriend Loretta.

Image
Church is this a joke? Bishop Nole Jones got engaged yesterday. Bishop Noel Jones is finally getting married to his longtime girlfriend Loretta. After dating for almost two decades the couple is ready to move things forward....that's according to the internet. My question is why would Loretta marry this old man now? Foolish. If anyone listened very closely to what he said in the clip, he honestly said, "I'm an old man now, and I can't run these streets hitting women anymore. So, I'll marry Loretta now so she can take care of me when I face that stage in life when I can't do for myself. " She is making a grave mistake. But hopefully, she'll get the payoff in the end. She shouldn't sign no prenuptial agreement at this point. God bless them.  Although Bishop Jones or his congregation haven’t released an official statement yet, the internet is teeming with videos from a recent celebration where the pastor announced his decision to marry Loretta.

Church if not mistaken this is the second stepdown for Hillsong founder Brian Houston???( you can read about his first stepdown here ) Houston has announced he is stepping down as leader of the church as he defends criminal charges that allege he covered up his father’s child sexual abuse. In a statement made on Sunday, Houston said he made the decision after consulting with the church’s leadership and legal counsel.     The leader of Hillsong, the Australian megachurch that has attracted throngs of young people and celebrities worldwide, has stepped down as he prepares to fight a criminal charge of concealing historical child sexual abuse by his father. The church’s leader, Brian Houston, said in a statement published on Hillsong’s website on Sunday that he had agreed to give up “all ministry responsibilities” until the end of 2022 to focus on his legal battle following the advice of Hillsong’s legal advisers.

Should Their Licenses Be Revoked?? Whatever Happened To The Nurses Oath?

Image
Church this could have well contributed to the spikes in COVID infections. These nurses may have indirectly murdered a lot of people. Two nurses on New York’s Long Island are being charged with forging Covid-19 vaccination cards and entering the fake jabs in the state’s database, a scam that allegedly raked in more than $1.5 million. The Suffolk County District Attorney on Friday arrested Julie DeVuono, 49, the owner and operator of Wild Child Pediatric Healthcare in Amityville and her employee, Marissa Urraro, 44, according to a complaint. From November 2021 to January 2022, the pair allegedly forged vaccination cards, charging adults $220 apiece and $85 per child for a fake record that would land in the New York State Immunization Information System database.  Prosecutors said that on one or more occasions, DeVuono and Urrano allegedly created records to indicate a vaccine was given to an undercover detective despite never administering the vaccine. “Forging COVID-19 vaccination

Evangelism In Rough Neighborhoods Can Be Dangerous🐾

Church a man was shot to death in Montgomery, Alabama, as he was reportedly sharing the Gospel last weekend. Thomas Hand, Jr., 37, was the husband of former Miss Mississippi Christine Kozlowski Hand. He died at the scene of the crime in front of his 2-year-old child, WLOX-TV reported. Some outlets report his wife and child were both with him, with the Daily Mail proclaiming he was sharing his Christian faith with individuals in a rough Alabama neighborhood at the time of the attack. Sources told the outlet Hand was discussing faith on Saturday when a mumbling man approached and decided to open fire. A 17-year-old named Jerimiah Walker was reportedly arrested and charged with capital murder.

Is Chicago Pastor Corey Brooks Of New Beginnings Church A Con-man? Some Chicagoans Seems To Think So🐾

Image
Church conservative republican Pastor Corey Brooks of New Beginnings Church,  dubbed by Faux News as “Chicago’s Rooftop Pastor,” is speaking out on the reasoning why he claims he lost three-fourths of his congregation and budget over his conservative values....which many say is not true, at least it's not according to many Chicagoans, who deny his reason he lost his black congregation on the Southside of Chicago, it was not because of his black conservatism....but more likely over his right-wing political views, and being an alleged conman....black conservatism is about the recognition, elevation, and intellectualism of black people while sustaining patriotic values to better and benefit our communities.  Anyhow, I blog about this ten years ago , when Brooks first made headlines for a similar act of public protest and prophecy. He spent three months atop a motel in Chicago’s Woodlawn neighborhood saying the motel was “the epicenter of criminality.” So Brooks vowed to live atop the

Church do you think Dwayne Wade disrespected Kobe Bryant by letting his daughter wear a jersey dress? Some are saying that Dwayne Wade, like Magic Johnson before him, sold out his child who is transgender....and that more and more athletes are selling their souls and their children's souls for fame.....now I don't think the wearing of the dress is disrespectful....jersey dresses have been around for years...but what I do think is whoever designed the dress was disrespectful for that being their final product...as for the Wade's I don't think they we're disrespectful just in denial cause they knew that dress was ugly before they allowed the pictures to be taken.....anyhow I think Former NBA player Kwame Brown is out of line for slamming the fashion tribute to Kobe Bryant, while at the same time attacking Dwayne Wade manhood....on the second anniversary of Kobe Bryant's death, 14-year-old Zaya Wade showed love to the Bryants by sharing a photo of herself wearing a

Conservatives Are Mad at Biden's Supreme Court Pick Before the Pick Has Even Been Made🐾

Image
Church only two African Americans, Justices Thurgood Marshall, and Clarence Thomas, have served on the nation’s highest court, and only one woman of color has been a justice — Justice Sonia Sotomayor.  I'm so happy to hear President Biden commit to nominating the nation's first Black female Supreme Court justice as he honors retiring Justice Stephen Breyer. Projected Top picks: DC Circuit Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, California Supreme Court Justice Leondra Kruger, South Carolina US District Judge J. Michelle Childs, North Carolina Supreme Court Associate Justice Anita Earls, Minnesota US District Judge Wilhelmina "Mimi" Wright, Circuit Judge Eunice Lee, Circuit Judge Candace Jackson-Akiwumi and Sherrilyn Ifill, a civil rights attorney.  Anyhow, if President Biden had given hints that he would be nominating Condoleeza Rice or Virginia Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears or Sue-Anne Robinson all black conservatives, the Republicans in the Senate would likely not be whining a

  This picture shatters my heart. I hate that anybody had to go through this, especially my ancestors. This is what "they" are fighting so hard to ban from school; hence, critical race theory. I Will NEVER FORGET it! Everybody needs to know—no matter how horrific the details are. They created this type of history and it will be told. 

Seeking Justice For Lauren Smith Fields🐾

Image
Church Lauren Smith Fields was a 23-year-old Black woman who died under very mysterious circumstances after a Bumble date with Michael LaFountain, a 37-year-old white man, and the police refuse to investigate.  After authorities said there was no foul play in the death of 23-year-old Lauren Smith-Fields, her death is now being investigated for potential foul play. According to CNN, officials stated the department's narcotics and vice division has opened an investigation, which will be assisted by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration. Acting police Chief Rebeca Garcia said in statement police are focusing on "the factors that led to her untimely death.” On Dec. 12, 2021, the Black Tik Tok influencer was found dead in her Bridgeport, Conn. home after going out on a date with a white man from the dating app Bumble. The unidentified man, who was the last person to see Smith-Fields alive, reportedly called 911 “after realizing her nose was bleeding and she had stopped breathing

Self-Proclaimed “Apostle” Kathryn Krick, What does deliverance look like today?

Image
Church what in the world is this? What does deliverance look like today? These kids are so playing up for the camera you can see them actually looking at the camera.  Anyhow, this is self-proclaimed Apostle Kathryn Krick who is known for modern-day deliverance on YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok. This is supposed to be a church service, it’s hard to watch… a grown man sitting on a young girl like that. I’m sure there are unclean spirits in that place— and so sad people could believe this is of God. And when those girls grow up do you think they will walk away from all things Christian because of this trauma?🤷Who buys into this?  At first, I laughed as I couldn’t believe what I was watching. Literal jaw-drop. But as I continued watching I grew more and more enraged (I couldn’t finish this thing). I’ve seen Kathryn Krick and the many fake “deliverances” and repeated adult actors/actresses attending her “healing sessions” before. Church these are children being used for someone else’s gain

Justin Dailey, Senior Pastor of Action Church In Orlando, Florida, Has Quietly Divorced His Wife Stefanie In A Court Half The State Away From His Church.

Image
Church according to Julie Roys the pastor of Action Church—a Florida multi-site megachurch planted with the Association of Related Churches (ARC)—has quietly divorced his wife in a court half the state away from the Orlando-area church. Justin Dailey, senior pastor of Action Church, and his former wife, Stefanie Dailey, filed an uncontested dissolution of marriage in rural Dixie County, some three hours’ drive from his church. It was filed last June and finalized two months later, court records show. The Roys Report did not find an announcement by either Justin Dailey or Action Church, publicly acknowledging the dissolution. Action Church did not respond to a request for comment. The church states online that it has trustees (non-staff elders) and overseers, other outside pastors involved “in accountability matters.” However, the website does not name church trustees or overseers.

Rapper Lecrae Loses Tour Date After Tweeting Criticism of “Gentrified, Politicized” Church Culture🐾

Image
Church, in my humble opinion, he didn’t really lose anything! God will give it back to him press down and run over. Lecrae tweeted that he lost a show because of a tweet rooted in how American Christianity is a dump truck of things the believer doesn't need to follow Jesus. The tweet that he posted was true. But what happened to him is the path of those who believe who speak the truth. It is costly. You have to be willing to lose something by standing on the truth. But the powers that be in American Western Christianity will try to silence you if you don't check off all of the things that it has made the law that you challenge even if it deserves critique. It seeks to deny the cultural experiences of others to maintain the idol of power and control hidden behind this idea that they are protecting orthodoxy. It's smoke and avoidance to resist acknowledging the truth.  Anyhow, Atlanta-based Christian rap artist, Lecrae Moore revealed recently that he lost a tour date followin

Praying For Cora Jakes Coleman Family🐾

Church I did mention this three weeks ago Cora Jakes-Coleman the oldest daughter of Bishop TD Jakes and her husband Richard Coleman were separated.....today she announced her divorce from her husband via IG https://www.instagram.com/p/CZHyIFbOj7f/... I’ve never gone threw a divorce so I’m keeping them in prayer. I'm not saying that the arrest of her husband in 2019 had anything to do with the couple's divorce...I thought that it was interesting.  Cora Jakes Coleman is the daughter of a popular mega pastor, Bishop Thomas Dexter Jakes Sr., also known as T.D. Jakes. Born on July 19, 1987, the 34-year-old is a religious author, pastor, and filmmaker. According to the reports, Coleman directs the children's ministry at the nondenominational megachurch, "The Potter's House." Originally hailing from Dallas, Texas, Cora Jakes Coleman is the eldest daughter of her father, Bishop T.D. Jake and mother, First Lady Serita. The 34-year-old pastor has published several book

The nonprofit organization also stated that the 2021 first-year class is larger and more diverse than any that came before it. “We have never seen such an increase within a short amount of time,” Norma Poll-Hunter, who leads workforce diversity efforts at the Association of Medical Colleges, told GBH News . . .”

Couple Denied Adoption Because Of Faith?

Image
Church this is interesting, this particular law was passed to allow discrimination against same-gender couples. Here we see a Jewish couple suing the State of Tennessee, which is using their tax dollars to subsidize discrimination against them because of their religion. This looks sure to make its way up the ladder, eventually to the Supreme Court. One can't help remembering a case from last year, Fulton v. Philadelphia, where Philadelphia wouldn't contract with an adoption agency that refused to allow adoption by LGBT couples. There, the Supremes held in favor of the Catholic adoption agency. One wonders where the right-wing ideologues on the Court will stand where it is a Christian agency that is denying services to Jews. Does the Court again side with the conservative Christians, allowing them to use public funds in the course of discriminating against non-Christians? One thinks we'll be hearing much more about this case as time goes by. A Knox County couple is suing the

Right Wing Nuts, Are Upset That M&Ms Characters Have Undergone A Transformation To Match A More Dynamic, Progressive World.

Image
Church talk about craziness this is crazy. The M&M character redesign comes in the wake of a child slavery lawsuit against the big chocolate companies Mars, Nestlé, and Hershey, it was a pretty neat distraction if you ask me. Candymaker Mars is giving a makeover to its six M&M characters as a way to promote inclusivity. The company said that it will provide a modern take on the appearances of the characters and give them more nuanced personalities. The candy company decided to give each of the six characters a "fresh, modern take" on their traditional look and "more nuanced personalities to underscore the importance of self-expression and power of community through storytelling." And of course, some of the right-wing nut jobs are having a fit, Mike Huckabee did a viral post about it.    Anyhow it's the corporate greed that we should be upset about.....the Mars family owning $153.8 billion in wealth, became $50 billion richer during the pandemic & spe

A Georgia Pastor Has Been Charged With False Imprisonment After Police Found Eight People Locked In His Home’s Basement😏😏

Image
Church how do you find “up to” eight people.? Here are either eight people or there are not eight people. It’s not like it’s 800. So these people were collecting probably $2k to $3k per person. That is like $20k per month tax-free.   A Georgia pastor and his wife were arrested on charges of false imprisonment after officials found up to eight people locked in their basement, police said. Curtis Keith Bankston and Sophia Simm-Bankston were running the unlicensed "group home" out of their rented Griffin house "under the guise of a church known as One Step of Faith 2nd Chance," the Griffin Police Department said in a statement.  According to police, Curtis Keith Bankston allegedly imprisoned mentally and physically disabled people in his basement, while seizing control of their assets. Authorities say Bankston held 8 patients against their will in a group home that was unlicensed and disguised as a faith-based ministry called ‘One Step of Faith 2nd Chance.’ Bankston,

What Does It Mean When Black Christians Say They Are Deconstructing Their Faith?

Image
Church what is deconstruction? What does it mean when people say they are deconstructing their faith? What does it mean when Black Christians say they are deconstructing their faith? I've been hearing a lot online lately about people who are deconstructing their faith, especially Black Christians. So, what does it mean if someone is deconstructing” one’s faith? Is it dangerous/sinful? Is it a slippery slope? Deconstructing is breaking down parts of something and analyzing it with fresh eyes. It’s questioning.”Why do I believe what I believe?” And, “If presented new information, should I (or will I) change my mind?” Below are some things that I and other Black Christians have been deconstructing and rebuilding some new beliefs around:   Patriarchy (male’s top-tier role in churches, which has caused wide misuse of power, including promotion of toxic masculinity) Purity culture (that has caused great damage to females in homes, churches & society)  Nationalism (an unbiblical, ma

Tennessee Megachurch Pastor Is Caught Half-naked With Married Co-worker By Furious Worshippers.

Image
Church according to the Daily Beast( YOU CAN READ IT HERE )Some volunteers from this church in Chattanooga, Tennessee, arrived at their pastor’s house last November, in the hope to raise his spirits with a surprise visit. Instead, they got a shock: Pastor Tavner Smith was alone with a female church employee—she in a towel, he in his boxers. The charismatic 41-year-old hurriedly explained that the two of them had been making chili and hot dogs and got food on their clothes, according to one volunteer who was present. But, as the volunteer put it, “I don’t think none of us was that dumb.” To hear Pastor Smith tell it, he came to Chattanooga by divine intervention. In 2012, as a lowly student pastor at Ron Carpenter’s massive Greenville, South Carolina, megachurch, Smith says he was called by God to move his wife and kids to Tennessee and start a church of his own, in the hollowed-out building of an old Sam’s Club. He claims he was once banned from the mall for recruiting there eight hou

Former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick And Wife, Launch Their Bold New Movemental Ministries In Atlanta GA🐾

 Church on Jan. 20,2022 Former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick and his wife, LaTicia Kilpatrick, introduced a bold new ministry called Movemental Ministries, in Atlanta GA. The Kilpatricks intends for the ministry to serve as the transformational work of Jesus Christ and provide an outlet for those dealing with mental and spiritual issues brought on by the global pandemic. When asked how he came up with the idea for this church, Kilpatrick recalled the seven years he spent in federal prison after being sentenced to 28 years, Detroit News reports. The unique aspect of Movemental Ministries is that Kilpatrick decided to be completely virtual. On Jan. 19, he launched the ministry’s website to host opportunities for prayer and encouragement, two Bible studies a week, workshops, sermons every Saturday, and forums and seminars. Also, his new book Off The Grid will be available on the site on Jan. 20. Kilpatrick also plans to distribute grants to churches experiencing financial difficulti

YouTube Removes Pastor John MacArthur's Latest Sermon on Biblical Sexuality, Labels It 'Hate Speech'🐾

Image
Church last year a US court had ruled that YouTube is not a "public forum" that must guarantee users' rights to free speech. Some online Conservatives are arguing that YouTube was wrong to pull John MacArthur's Sunday sermon labeling it "Hate Speech" after he said God made us 'Male and Female'. MacArthur said, "There is no such thing as transgender. You are either XX or XY, that's it. God made man male and female. That is determined genetically, that is physiology, that is science, that is reality." But YouTube removed MacArthur's sermon from its platform, "Our team has reviewed your content, and, unfortunately, we think it violates our hate speech policy," YouTube said.

Church founding member of Grammy-nominated Christian hip-hop group The Cross Movement, Brady Goodwin a.k.a. “Phanatik” became an apologetics teacher. In a new video posted online, Goodwin has renounced Westernize Christian faith. “I sent a letter to my church withdrawing my membership and saying that I am denouncing the Christian faith that I have believed, professed, proclaimed, and defended for the last 30 years of my life,” said Goodwin in the video. Pastor Curt Allen of Solid Rock Church in Riverdale, Md. responded to Goodwin’s video. “I don’t immediately run to First John 2 when this happens: ‘Well, they were never with us,’” said Allen. “He has to die in unbelief to make that statement. As long as he’s alive, there’s a possibility that he returns (to the faith).” When I read this story, I see a young man dealing with pain and trauma. And the Trumpian evangelical church's denial of racism, lack of empathy, and hatred of those of us who are black are enough to drive anyone to d

Ohio Pastor Under Investigation After Cremated Remains Of 89 People Found At His Church!

Church an Ohio pastor is being investigated by police for running multiple illegal funeral businesses across the state. He is now facing a slew of new charges after investigators uncovered the remains of 89 people in boxes and bags at his abandoned church in Akron. In September, Shawnte Hardin, 41, pastor of the abandoned Greater Faith Missionary Baptist Church, was charged with racketeering, tampering with records, identity fraud, and abuse of a corpse in Lucas County after he was discovered to have been operating without a funeral license. On Tuesday, authorities reportedly found more than 80 cremated human remains while searching a building Hardin used for funeral services in Akron, Ohio. The search of the lot was part of the investigation into Hardin’s illegal funeral services.

Bishop Carlton Pearson Said To Stop Trying To Throw Pastor Mike Todd Away.

Image
 Church Bishop Carlton Pearson is getting dragged to hell for his comment claiming that Pastor Michael Todd is like a nephew to him and the brother on whom the spit was smeared was his godson. They grew up in Higher Dimensions the church he founded in 1981, the same year he hired his parents and moved them to Tulsa. He’s a highly gifted, passionate, generous, and anointed young man. Yes, he crossed the line and was excessive to the point of disgusting millions, but he is not a criminal, cheat, fake, hypocrite, or self-centered preacher. He’s young with success none of us expected him to have. He’s by no means perfect, but he’s a called man of God and good. If you wanna throw someone away, it shouldn’t be him or anyone like him. He’s the real thing. Join me tomorrow night at 8:30 CST and let’s talk about the “church” of the 21st century and how different it needs to be to survive what’s coming, starting this year. It will be quite intense!

Church why is prosecutor Marlyn Mosby being indicted for lying on a loan application to buy a house, yet the former white house idiot alleged lied & inflated property values to get loans then reducing value to avoid paying taxes walks with no indictments, & what about all those that forged electorate documents? I'm very much in support of Baltimore State Attorney Marilyn Mosby .... to be charged for the withdrawal of retirement funds is absolutely ridiculous... and just goes to show that we as Black people are held to another type of standard than good Ole America. This isn't a political post for me, this is my simple support of a black woman under attack !!! A federal grand jury indicted Baltimore's top prosecutor Thursday on charges of perjury and making false mortgage applications in the purchase of two Florida vacation homes, the Office of the U.S. Attorney for the District of Maryland said.

Dr. Stevenson actually posted a picture of his hospital armband on his Instagram page. He also went on to say that he has had four near-death encounters this past week alone. The popular leader of the All Nations church says someone spiritually is after him.

Transformation Church Pastor Mike Todd Is Trending For Spitting On His Hand And Smearing It On A Parishioner To Prove Trusting God Isn't Easy😏😏

Image
Church Transformation Church Pastor Mike Todd is trending for spitting on his brother. I’m not a huge fan of illustrations and quite honestly this was just too much for me.  My biggest concern is that now - more attention is on him(Mike Todd)than the actual Word of God He was attempting to preach. By using his own real spit, it takes the attention off of Jesus and the biblical story and places it on himself. I’m neither a huge fan nor a hater of Pastor Mike Todd. I think he does a tremendous amount of charitable good in his community and I believe he has a good heart. But I also wouldn’t recommend his teachings to anyone as he’s consistently demonstrated erroneous teaching.  

Some Christians Are Calling Kanye West Out For Posting This Skinned Monkey On His Instagram To “artwork” For His New Song.

  Church Kanye West posted a REAL photo of a skinned monkey on his Instagram. If that isn't a sign that 2022 is going to be just as horrible as last year, I don't know what is. The artwork for Kanye West and The Game's new single, "Eazy," which reveals a skinned monkey, has PETA pissed off. President of the animal rights group, Ingrid Newkirk, issued an announcement to Billboard on Friday (Jan. 14), slamming the duo for selling and sharing the pictures through social media. “The photo is reminiscent of the monkeys PETA has found, sometimes heads, sometimes hands, sometimes the whole body, in meat markets around the world and it makes it clear that when you remove the fur you can’t miss that there’s a person in there, that they are fellow primates, and do not belong to us to abuse for any purpose—not in laboratories, roadside zoos, movies, or meat markets,” the assertion reads. 

Salute to BRITISH VOGUE for an awesome cover.

Image
Church the February cover of British Vogue is meant to celebrate black models, but some critics on social media called it offensive due to its use of lighting and styling that made the models appear darker. I have been buying Vogue Magazines for decades, however, I stopped. It is nice to see this Magazine being diverse on its cover now in this generation. I think this cover is fabulous. They are celebrating black and change. Excellent!!! I think putting them in all black was a good move. Makes their skin-pop more. You can see the shade variations between all of their skins better. Dark-skinned people can also wear black. It's ok. We don't always have to wear bright colors. Our skin glows no matter what colors we wear.  Salute to VOGUE for an awesome cover.

Did God Override Pharaoh’s Free Will By Hardening His Heart And Then Punish Him For It?

Image
Church this question has been on my timeline for a while now, tell me what yall think? I say yes and no. Each time the pharaoh was prepared to let the Israelites go, God is portrayed as “hardened the pharaoh’s heart” such that he refused and Egypt was obliged to undergo yet another devastating plague.....for plagues 2 and 4 Pharaoh hardened his own heart....for plagues 1, 3, 5, 7 Pharaoh’s heart ‘grew hard’ all by itself, for 6, 8, 9 and 10 God did it..... I’ve often wondered if there was a significance in that - I’ve heard from a many of pulpit the moral ‘if you start out by hardening your heart, God might end up doing it for you.  What do yall think?

A Hostage Situation Unfolded During Shabbat Services, Why The synagogue Was Live-Streaming On Facebook😮😮

Image
Church some breaking news out of Texas this morning that’s ongoing! A gunman has taken at least 4 people, hostage, at Congregation Beth Israel synagogue in Colleyville Texas during a Livestream of their service this morning. The FBI, Texas Department of Public Safety, ATF, and agents from the Dallas Field Division are all assisting in the negotiations to free the hostages. The Livestream appears to have caught some of the incidents before the video stream was removed.  Law enforcement officials told CNN they reviewed the stream and are using it to gather clues on the incident and the individuals involved. Star-Telegram reporter Jessika Harkay tweeted out remarks that the hostage-taker allegedly made, which could be heard on the Livestream before it was taken down. “Don’t cry on the f***ing phone with me,” a person, who is allegedly the hostage-taker, said. “Don’t f***ing cry on me. I have 6 beautiful kids… There are hostages in the synagogue who are going to die… What are you crying fo

Is Denouncing Greek Organizations Anti-Black?

Image
Church here's another Christian sister that has decided to denounce her sorority...I see GOD is waking more & more people up to the truth about these fraternities & sororities. Any organization you pledge your allegiance to is idolatry. People think you’re overacting when you speak on these things, but do not realize what happens in the spirit realm when you come into agreement with organizations like these.  Anyhow the following comment is from an online source tell me if you agree with it or not?  " Whether one should agree with the concept or not, denouncing African-American Greek letter orgs’ is essentially anti-black based on the fact that these organizations excel black youth into the professional world, teach brotherhood and sisterhood within our own community & more. This wave of denouncing your greek organization is weird and so are y’all for doing that. If you believe that your greek org is causing you to put others, gods, before the one true living God,

Florida MEGA Church Removes Pastor For Stealing From The Offering Plate😕😕

Image
Church you have to wonder if there was some kind of underlying issue that would cause him to do that such as debts owed to bookies, an affair, or something equally nefarious. In my opinion, he should have been canned in 2018. What megachurches won't do to protect their dirty little secrets? Anyhow, Summit Church—a large, multi-site church in south Florida—has announced that one of its main pastor/elders has been removed after admitting he stole money from the church. In a statement, Summit confirmed that Jim Hines, formerly listed as a directing elder, was caught stealing money from an offering on Christmas Eve. Hines also admitted to stealing cash from the church in 2018, the statement said. Summit said Hines’ employment has been terminated. Source Here
