    Oh please, I am soooo tired of these so-called saints making excuses for their ungodly behavior...and then to parade it on nationwide TV for all the world to see, makes it even worse.

    *SIGH*

    P.S. I didn't bother to watch the video either.

He went to the new (Paulk) church this week on the show and did some rappin before the congregation and talked about how he loved the "inclusive" message.

    My take on Swiley is very simple. The words that come out of his mouth, more than anything, have very little to do with loving Jesus, really. However, he does say, "ministry", "my calling", "my destiny", "I can't believe we lost our Church when our dad came out as gay, like what he did for all those years didn't count for anything", "we had a Church of 3,000 people". Can't say for certain it's his fault.....he was raised in ministry and it's really all he knows, but those phrases I just typed literally roll off his tongue all the time, in almost all of the camera interviews. He is really STUCK on "ministry".

    His parents' marriage was a sham because his father is gay and came out a few years ago. From what they have said on the show, his parents had an "understanding" when they did get married. They both knew he was gay, but in order to "succeed" in "ministry", they would have to play like he was straight, and they did for many years. The divorce was in the news.

    My absolute favorite on the show is the police office Corey who is also a pastor. The female pastors are ok, but I wouldn't beat the door down to go to their Churches.

    I started watching with episode two and it's not breaking new ground, but I only post this because the inclusive doctrine has come up, and seems like it's gonna break open when one of the pastors on the show confronts Judah about his beliefs.
    I DVR it every week. My guilty pleasure. I use to watch soap operas back in the day, so maybe this is my "methadone". LOL!


    I don't condone all of the actions of the participants on the show, but I appreciate the ministry they do. It's the kind of a Evangelism I LOVE doing and that I miss very much since our Evangelism ministry's focus has changed. #noshameinmygame

    Well, see, that's why I said I wouldn't bust the doors down to get to her Church. There are several glaring things wrong with her in the series. She's married to a dude that doesn't seem to have a job. She has some sort of ministry with "volunteers", and the volunteers are all homeless and live with someone on staff. After six months of having 5 people living in his house and not contributing, he kicked them out. She just would not or could not accept that it's a hardship having that many people living in your house. She wouldn't hear it.....at all. But they made up and it wasn't clear if the folks were going to move back in, but yeah....there's things very OFF about her, besides being drunk and cussing like a sailor. (and then excusing it like it's normal behavior for a minister of the gospel).
    The reference to "my fans" made me think what the blankety-blank?!? "Fans!" She reminds me of NeNe Leakes. Maybe she's a Nene wannabe. smh

    Okay....sooooo.....the cussing tangent was featured on last night's show. What did I learn? I learned that Ms. LeAndria is an unhealed soul and has no business trying to get people set free, when she herself is so wounded.

    See, this is one thing drives me insane about Christians.....wallowing in self-pity when people try and address your UNGODLY behavior, which is precisely what happened. She gets all defensive and tries to make excuses when her behavior is addressed by the other ministers, and it was so obvious and crystal clear...the woman is a walking, unhealed, wound. She resorts to the typical, "blame the Church....if they weren't so judgemental, I wouldn't be having to deal with the fallout of my own sinful choices and behavior". :bado: Girlfriend is the poster child for, "your gifting will take you where your character cannot sustain you". And it's a pity and a shame, because I believe she does have a heart for people. At least the other ministers have enough love to confront her, but support her, which is what they did. All she did was whine and cry. Clearly, she needs help.

    Next weeks' episode shows someone strongly confronting her, which is good. Her husband is just as bad as she is.

    Agree with EVERYTHING you said! I could hardly believe she was accusing the other ministers of judging her! For real girlfriend?! You're right her husband is just as bad, if not worse. Get a job and have a seat "brotha"!

    Did you hear him say, "I work for her and she don't pay me on time, and she don't pay me the right amount?" Dude, get a real job.

    And what's with Pastor Corey's step-daughter? Can you spell C-L-U-E-L-E-S-S? Hopefully she'll get some Holy Ghost sense and leave that "cradle robbing" boyfriend of hers. (Emphasis on boy). Sheesh!

    Yup! Pastor Corey's daughter pulls out the same, "Don't judge me! You're judging me!" card. Drives_me_batty! I can't stand when unrepentant Christians wallow in self pity when they are caught in sin. It's the worst sign of immaturity in Christ.

    He should've "laid hands" on that Buster the minute he said, "I like her body." What a loser, can't get a "real" grown woman, so he goes after naive young girls. I can imagine how her mother is feeling. Especially having her own past life seemingly being played out by her daughter. I'm sure her heart is breaking.

    I know, right? Pastor Corey and his wife seem like the "real deal" people. They are my favorite on the show. But their daughter....good grief.

    Her biological father doesn't appear assertive even though he seems to be a part of her life. There's probably a story there.
