My hope is that his pastor and church family are holding him up in prayer, I hope he's confessed, been forgiven, and that God continues to use him to bless the body of Christ with his gift in the music ministry.

"Houghton vehemently denies cheating on his wife with Bailon.
"Where I shared, or as some have pointed out 'over-shared' my failure in my marriage... From over 5 years prior. It seems to be simple math that I had not even yet met Adrienne during the time my marriage was falling apart," Houghton said.
"It deeply saddens me that an innocent party would be dragged into this situation that I have taken personal responsibility for. Adrienne is a woman of integrity & character... Most of all she is a true friend, and she should not be blamed for my past indiscretions. I assure you - I am willing to own my wrongs and I have in the past. God knows & sees all things. I appreciate your prayers, and I join you in praying for the issues of life that truly matter today all over the world."
Sounds reasonable and believable to me. Hopefully folks will move on and allow this brother to live his life in peace.

"As Radar reported, Houghton was spotted on a steamy Mexican getaway with Bailon at the Dreams resort in Tulum over the weekend. He was still wearing a wedding band, although he announced in February he and his wife Meleasa were splitting after 20 years. He admitted at the time that he had "failed and sinned" against his wife."
Nothing much to discuss here.

I was gonna post this story a few days ago when I first read about it.
Now his dating while technically still married is very questionable....but if divorce proceedings are under way, then maybe. But my thing is this. Why is he on a vacation with another woman? I mean....what the????!!!
{rant}See, this is the thing that just drives me nuts. Even if they aren't sharing a room, and they might not be, the impression is being given that they ARE, because they are on vacation together.
What is wrong with these ministers that they cannot refrain from the appearance of evil? What is the big deal to just wait a little while and let his divorce go through, and not vacation with another woman in Mexico at a resort? For the life of me, I just don't understand the stupidity with which these supposid ministers who sing day in and day out about Jesus, engage in. It's just plain stupidity.{rant over}

Yeah, but as I said before....if this was known 5 years ago, when Houghton was actually set in as worship leader in 2011, why was he even set in as worship leader in the first place?
Man, the Church is just as messy as the world.

I'm actually surprised Osteen sat him down - Glad, but really surprised.
