Jesus Take The Wheel

Posted by Bossip Staff

Juanita Bynum will go on “Divorce Court” this week to end her marriage with Bishop Thomas Weeks III who gave her a real good tail whooping back in August:

Televangelist Juanita Bynum says in a two-part episode of “Divorce Court” that she’s through with her marriage to minister Thomas W. Weeks III, who is on probation for assaulting her.

In episodes scheduled to air Thursday and Friday, Bynum also says she had thoughts of suicide and weighs in on a case involving domestic violence. When asked what advice she had for women in situations similar to hers, she said, “I have to make a decision … to take the love that I had for him with me. I was just trying to make it work because I don’t like losing relationships,” Bynum told Judge Lynn Toler, who hears cases on the syndicated show distributed by Twentieth Television. “All of this just kept getting swept under the rug … So you begin to adapt to a very wrong and very unhealthy marriage.”

When asked on “Divorce Court” whether she and Weeks were planning a reconciliation, Bynum said she is “done.” Bynum also was asked about rumors that she tried to commit suicide.

“Suicide crossed my mind … You know, I felt hopeless. I didn’t because the name Bynum represents a legacy of people that have gone before me and had I done that I would have given too much power to an individual to not just wipe me out but to wipe out the integrity of the legacy I was born in.”

Damn, she must be serious this time if she’s taking it to “Divorce Court”. They’re such media whores. SMH.

  1. I gotta give it to her, that’s some sound advice; some women allow themselves to get dragged through hell and high water all in the name of ‘love’, when it’s obvious that he’s *****g them, cheating on them, beating on them and far from knowing the true definition of the word. YOU CAN LOVE SOMEONE WHO’S TROUBLED FROM A DISTANCE, AND ALWAYS LOVE YOURSELF MORE THAN THE PERSON YOU’RE WITH…IT KEEPS THE PRIORITIES STRAIGHT!!! HOLLA!!!

  2. Rotex

    Aint that degrading herself if she goes on Divorce court.

  3. Kim

    STUPIDITY AT ITS BEST WHY WOULD SHE CLEAR HER PRIVATE ISSUE ON TV?

    IS SHE SO DESPERATE FOR MEDIA ATTENTION????

    WHY DO SOME PEOPLE BEHAVE THIS WAY???

    I NOW TRULY KNOW THAT SHE IS USING THE ALMIGHTY’S NAME TO MAKE MONEY

    I’M SORRY BUT THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE BTW HER AND A W*****

  4. bree

    ..Juanita is media-w*****

  5. rox

    C’mon?! Divorce Court? I’m not feeling that at all….You are THEE esteemed Juanita Bynum?! Disappointed.

  6. I cant say...

    Come on, not on Divorce Court… What a way to undermine the significance of the cir*****stances.

  7. Encyclopedia Brown

    nice bow tie


  8. Isn’t there something to be said about handling your business, especially something as private as marital business, in the privacy of your world? Have we not seen these people clowning each other enough by now? If you lack the wisdom to make sound decisions as someone who’s been recognized as someone w/a close relationship w/the Lord, let it go, already!Come on…publicity or not, this is beyond ridiculous!

  9. mojojojo195

    I AM SO SORRY BUT I DO NOT BUY HER ACCOUNTS OF ABUSE. I AM NOT SAYING THAT WOMEN DO NOT GET BEAT BY THEIR SPOUSE, BUT I DO NOT BELIVE HE BEAT HER. NOW SHE IS GOING ON DIVORCE COURT AND IT SHOWS ME THAT SHE IS REALLY TRYING TO MILK THIS ABUSED WIFE THING SMH

  10. pm

    They got paid to do it best believe

  11. Kompton's Kutie

    Divorce Court?! Ow No.


  12. I’m not a particularly big fan or follower of Juanita Bynum, but when you’ve endured a personal/spiritual battle like this, as a Christian, you ARE supposed to share by testifying, are you not? There is some woman who doesn’t have cable or Essence magazine going through this same abuse right at this very second and thinking there’s no way out, but she could see Juanita on this show and get the courage to ask for help and turn her life around. If one doesn’t testify on how to get out of a storm, some people may remain stuck in one. That’s the way I see it.

  13. bree

    Bossip, dlisted says Star filed for divorce from Al..post it post it post it!

  14. CAT EYES

    THIS WOMAN IS DISGUSTING-GOING ON TV TO SETTLE HER HOME ISSUES.YOU WOULD THINK SOMEONE LIKE HER WOULD HAVE MORE CL*****.IS HER CONGREGATION RUNNING OUT OF MONEY OR SOMETHING? I THOUGHT SHE CLAIMED TO BE SO CL*****Y. AND THIS IS NOT THE FIRST GUY TO BEAT HER-IN A PREVIOUS RELATIONSHIP,SHE WAS PUT IN A COMA. SO WHAT THE HELL IS REALLY GOING ON?I KNEW SHE WAS FULL OF ***** FROM THE BEGINNING-ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF SOMEONE TRYING TO USE THE WORD OF GOD TO MAKE MONEY.

  15. Southern Belle 225

    This is all a bunch of bull*****! How in the hell you are going to be supposed sheperds for the Lord and you are on TV doing your divorce? This sounds like a major pub stunt and I’m sorry, I can’t respect religious figures that do stuff like this.

  16. Deitre

    She’s always on television giving advice, so why is this any different? She isn’t a court parti*****nt, she simply speaks with the judge concerning issues of abuse, which she has experienced first hand. What’s the difference between this and TBN? They are a money making enterprise also.

  17. Southern Belle 225

    @cat eyes…she IS disgusting and I agree with what you said.

  18. Black Queen

    You are or you say youre a woman of God you yourself must uphold his will committing suicide is not his will not only would you have tranished your family name but the most inportant thing is if she did it she used GOD”S NAME IN VAIN you have to believe that he can bring you through all things and make you the head. She is really making me wonder what did she except Gods calling for to make a name for herself or to uphold God’s will I really dont know and another thing as a woman of God you do not exploit yourself or anybody else in the eye of the public and tv so thats why I wonder on her because she always seems to be in the public eye all the time. i was raised in a penticostal church my family came out of COIC the same church that she comes from. So she should know that I woman of God must hold virtue and be timid but bold in preaching his word. She just does not show that to me.


  19. i cant stand her.. i believe oonly 25% OF THIS STORY!!! SHE IS JUST NOT CREDIBLE, SHE MARRIED FOR ALL THE WRONG REASON THEN AFTER SEVERAL YEARS OF HER NOT BEING A WIFE, SHE GET A LITTLE BEYOND HERSELF. i BELIEVE HER HUSBAND HE STATED THAT SHE WAS THE DOMINEANT ONE IN THE RELATIONSHIP, AND HE GQAT TIRED OF HER ACTING LIKE SHE HAS A DI*K. I BELIVE SHE HIT HIM FIRST AND THEN BLEW THIS WHOLE THINKOUT OF PROPORTION… BOSSIP IS RIGHT MEDIA W***** #1


  20. Divorce Court? how low can you go?

    Haven’t you aired enough of your dirty laundry…GOODNESS!


  21. A woman of God thinking of committing suicide. BULL!!!


  22. I thought the Nation of Islam had that look on lock.

  23. Msshalle69

    I never comment on anything I see on Bossip, but I had to make an exception this time. I am totally disgusted by this action she is taking. How can you claim to serve GOD when your actions prove you are clearly self-serving. There is a way to testify that does not just serve your own purposes. I agree that we all go through challenges and we are supposed to be able to testify about how GOD has brought us through difficult times but your testimony is meant to draw others to Christ, not get more people on your side or to bring in more people to fill your congregation. This is totally outside the Will of GOD.

  24. mojojojo195

    SHE IS LYING

    SHE IS MAKING IT BAD FOR ABUSED WOMAN, NO ONE WILL BELIVE THEM IF THEY ARE NOT HONEST WITH THE ABUSE. SHE IS TAKING A SMALL AGRUEMENT AND TURING IT IN TO A BIG THING. NOW I BELIVE IKE WHOOPED TINA ***** AND LIONEL RICHIE EX EX WIFE BEAT THE ***** OUT OF HIM TOO. BUT I JUST CANT BELIVE HER. HER SPIRIT DOESNT RUB ME THE RIGHT WAY

  25. Spartylicious

    I’ve never been a fan of hers. She just doesn’t have the ring of truth in her. I remember when she came to TD Jakes 30 yr anniversary talking ’bout she bought him a Bentley. What kind of ***** is that? They’re up here leasing a damn mansion, but you got money to buy a Bentley? Liar.

    I don’t know if I believe the constant abuse rumors, but you do know that those gay men can get a little violent. You know that fool is gay and he ain’t no better than Juanita. The truth ain’t in him either.


  26. Shay Shay, what up homegirl?

  27. I'm Just Me

    DIVORCE COURT! Is this for real? Is she serious? I mean isn’t that a little excessive for this? To me this should be (as all divorce should) handled in a private manner. I don’t agree with DV at all and I too am a survivor of DV but why is she parading her situation all over the place. Where is the high level of spirituality that is in her life. This whole situation makes a mockery of the situation. If she is unhappy then fine but why splash it on some bootleg show like Divorce Court? Why not go to Oprah or speak to women in DV shelters. This all seems like such an act of Buffoonery!

  28. Lili

    See, this is what ppl need to understand: MAJORITY OF THE TELEVANGELISTS YOU WATCH AND SEND YOUR MONEY TO ARE ONLY IN IT FOR THE DOE!!! This mess ain’t no different than hip-hop artists making crappy music and lying about their street cred to get popular and take your money. THE MEDIA IS A GAME. It’s all a game and it’s used to pimp us out of our $.

    There are some real ppl trying to get a positive message out there, but not many. Especially not these 2.

    This couple sold their damn wedding tape on tape/dvd! Come one. That should have sounded the alarm. Some Black folk will follow damn near anybody.

    If you want to get involved in church go to the one down the street from your crib.

  29. Smartie

    This is another reason to turn people off of religion. People of “the cloth”taking what should be a personal issue to the public forum for the sole purpose of getting “attention” is pretty sad and pathetic. You don’t need to be on Divorce Court, take this coonin’ and bufoonin’ to where it belongs; HOT GHETTO MESS.

  30. ROB

    Hello everyone,

    I feel that it a good thing to let people know about an abusive relationship, but is she doing doing for money or to help other ytoung ladies out only the lord knows.

  31. Madam"O"

    Divorce Court???…another embar*****ment.

  32. ROB

    SORRY FOR THE TYP-O’S

  33. Al-Anon

    I guess the most important thing that she’s sharing is that if it can happen to her, it can happen to anyone. Domestic abusive happens to all kinds of people.

    I used to volunteer at a battered women’s shelter and I was SHOCKED that many of the battered women in there were married to COPS.

    Many of us have an image that domestic violence only happens to a “certain kind of woman”, but it happens to all kinds of women, even televangelists.

  34. ignant

    the divorce court episode must be a sick joke…but there is no denying the he beat her ***** in public for the world to see. why are we, as black folks, denying that TRUTH.

    Juanita may be shady as all get out, but the arrest record and witness prove that the beating did take place.

    i don’t care what anyone says, there is no justification for beating on someone you love – PERIOD!

  35. Al-Anon

    Weeks pleaded guilty in March to *****aulting Bynum on Aug. 21 in a hotel parking lot outside of Atlanta; police said Bynum told investigators he choked her, pushed her down and kicked and stomped her.

    For the love of God, how can you ever love, trust or forgive a person who would do this to you?

    What would you tell your daughter if she were married to this man?

  36. Southern Belle 225

    Speaking of weddings. Did anyone ever see that diabolical mess they call a wedding? It was just SOOOOOOOO over the top and sooo unnecssary. It was just ridiculous! My mother made me watch it because for some reason she was fascinated. I couldn’t even sit through all of it. It was HOURS long.

  37. Queen of Sarcasm

    I really do not understand after all the crap that she has been through, why would she open herself up to airing out her dirty laundry on tv, and in a show like “Divorce Court” of all shows!

    She needs to go on somewhere and heal her wounds. BUT NOT on Divorce Court.


  38. @Southern Belle, I heard about that but I never saw it, they were saying it was extravagant and she had two rings on both hands and a 30 foot wedding trail with like 20 bridesmaids…SMDH

  39. Msshalle69

    @Southern Belle 225

    I saw that hot mess and you did know from the that whole wedding mess that she not he was marrying for the right reasons. I couldn’t sit through all that ***** either.

  41. mojojojo195

    SHE IS ALL ABOUT THE DOE, SHE SAYS IT ABOUT HELPING OTHER WOMAN BUT I BEG TO DIFFER. SHE IS HAVING A LECTURE WITH CREFLO DOLLAR WIFE, THEY ARE CHARGING $65 TO ATTEND AT MADISON SQUARE GARDEN. IF YOU WERE ABOUT GETTING THE MESSAGE OUR WHY NOT DO IT FOR FREE. THAT SLOW BOAT TO HELL IS GOING TO BE FULL

  42. Southern Belle 225

    @lauren and Msshalle69…it was something. but you are right, when i saw that, i knew she wasn’t right. I liked her up until that wedding!

  43. Somer

    JUANITA IS MEDIA W*****! I live in Atl and I want to hear her wack ***** congregation defend this. Isn’t her bow tie wearing husband gay? This is what happens when a woman is so desperate to get married.

  44. My son's parole officer said it's gonna be alright!

    I agree with the lack of wisdom. God honors marriage and hates divorce. Although sometimes divorce is necessary, it should not be put on display like that. She may think she is doing a good thing by educating the public but, like the bible says, what seems good to a man isn’t always good and this is a good example of that!

  45. glok9n

    THEY BOTH ARE LIARS AND WHAT YOU TWO BLK DEVILS DO IN THE DARK THE MOST HIGH WILL BRING TO LIGHT!! AMEN TO THAT BOSSIP!

  46. Cher

    The other day I saw that she was coming to Houston to speak at The Fountain of Praise Women’s Conference. HECK NO!!!

    She has nothing to say to me. I feel for the stupid women who attend that church and is going to the conference. Pardon me for calling you stupid, but anyone hungry for publicity and drama can not speak to me about being a better person. She needs to be listening not speaking. NEXT! Come on over to Windsor Village, we’ll teach you how to give a WOMEN’S CONFERENCE and have REAL WOMEN speaking the word of GOD.

  47. Al-Anon

    As far as the article in the AJC is concerned, she will offer commentary on domestic abuse, but NOT talk about her OWN MARRIAGE!! She is not going on Divorce Court to discuss HER marriage, but offer support and counseling to other victims.

  48. OOHWEE

    I think this is another way for her to draw attention to herself. This situation has definitely been taken too far. Everything time they say they have nothing more to say about the situation they end up doing ANOTHER interview. THEY BOTH NEED TO KEEP IT MOVING!!!

  49. TaShA

    u know i swear….i SOOOO think that she is exploiting this situation for personal gain. i read the two part special Essence did with her and some of the things that she said, jus didn’t make sense. i’m sorry but in my opinion, she is just trying to continue to get publicity so that she can make her next career move. i think that juanita as well as bishop weeks are both SHADY characters. NOTE 2 JUANITA: STOP claiming to be the new face of domestic violence and handle your issues privately. u just aren’t believable to me…you or your soon to be ex husband.

  50. Female Minister

    Jesus, please take the wheel because this woman is driving everybody crazy. Rev. Bynum, find a quiet place to pray and find God for real so you can be a better witness.

  51. LADYMDJ

    I think this is just another trick of the devil. Someone hasn’t prayed or fasted to ask God what’s the right way to handle the situation. To go on national TV is not the answer when she stated that she would not talk bad about her mate. I think if they decided to split then they should have done that in private. (Don’t let your good be evil spoken of) All we can do is pray for the couple and ask God to deliver them. Pray, Pray, Pray.

  52. Tessa

    Juanita just needs to let it rest, Bishop Weeks has gone on about his life. If she truly has forgiven him she wouldn’t be doing this. He’s not doing interviews about what happened, even though I believe his side.

    She misses the attention, the money and fame, she needs to repent and turn back to God. Because it was God who revealed this mess in her life.

  53. ARTOFWAR

    Publicity w***** till the end.. She is going to appear on television to get divorced?

    What!!!! A so called woman of her stature. I have but three words. Desperate, shameless, and cl*****less. E.

  55. I CANT BELIEVE THAT AT ALL

  56. GRACE

    THIS IS WHAT IS HAPPENING TO THE BODY OF CHRIST THIS LAST AND EVIL DAY. IF YOUR CONSIDER YOURSELF TO BE A MAN OR WOMAN OF GOD, PRAY!!! YOU KNOW THAT WE CAN NOT FIGHT THE ENEMY IN DIVISION. WE NEED TO BE UNIFIED AS A MIGHTY ARMY OF THE LORD. THIS IS NOT THE WILL OF GOD, FOR ANY OF US THAT CALL HIM LORD. ESPECIALLY IF WE ARE SUPPOSED TO BE LEADERS IN THE CHURCH JUANITA!!!!!

  57. gina

    ONE OF LIFES HARDEST LESSONS IS LEARNING WHAT THE TRUE DEFINITION OF LOVE IS. AN EMOTIONAL AND PHYSICALLY ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIP SOME TIMES COMES WITH SEARCHING FOR THE RIGHT MATE. IT IS A PROCESS THAT TAKES AN UNDETERMINED AMOUNT OF TIME. SEEKING PEACE AND SOLACE IN JESUS CHRIST IS THE ONLY WAY TO LEARN, GROW, AND MATURE INDIVIDUALLY. LOVE DOES NOT HURT, ABUSE,OR TORMENT. THIS IS CALLED OBSESSION OR LUST. SO MANY PEOPLE CONFUSE THE TWO. LOVE IS NOT LOWERING ONES SELF WORTH, INTEGRITY, OR STANDARDS. I TOTALLY DISAGREE WITH SPEAKING TO THE MEDIA ABOUT SUCH A SENSITIVE SUBJECT. THIS LEARNING PROCESS SHOULD BE KEPT PRIVATE AND ON A SPRITUAL LEVEL WITH HER LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST. SHE IS NOT READY TO BE A SPOKESPERSON FOR DOMESTIC VIOLENCE OR AN ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIP, BECAUSE OF HER REPITITIOUS MISTAKES, AND POOR CHOICES IN A MATE. WHEN A WOMAN OR A MAN LEARNS THE TRUE DEFINTION OF LOVE AND CAN UPHOLD TO IT THE RIGHT MATE WILL COME TO YOU ONLY THROUGH JESUS.

  58. $m♥K.E.Y.

    I heard he beat the Mahilia Jackson out of this woman….

    DAMN

  59. TRUTH,, i am a girl

    That aint the Christian way! In the bible it says do not take your brother and sister to a worldly judge before the world, for this brings shame upon you! Man Juanita What is up with you! Get it together Sister. I will pray for you though!

  60. Lovely One

    Why are they making this breakup soooo public. I’m starting to think that they are both looking for the lime light.

  61. Tealeaf

    What a stupid idea…

  62. Whatchaknoaboutdat?

    I can’t wait to see it!!! It’s going to be on this week…. yayyyyy…. I will get to see this — I hope. :)

  63. mojojojo195

    @ GINA

    NO TRUER WORDS HAVE BEEN SPOKEN

  64. MrsLaadee

    Say what you want but I think this marriage is ending b/c Bishop Weeks won’t go back with her. If he wanted this marriage she would be back with him in a heartbeat. And yes shady sh** goes on in churches all the time and not just in the rap world like a lot of people seem to think. The problem is the ones in the church need to be watched the most b/c their shady sh** be on the sneak whereas rap sh** is more out in the open for the public to see.


  65. LMAO

  66. Melinda

    Check this heffa on youtube she is no women of God, she had the nerve to ask folks for like $200,000. to build a temple for people to go and speak directly to God. Where was her God when she was getting stomped out by her gay ***** husband? This is how religion gets a bad name when you bring in all the fakes its hard to believe who is truly serving God.

  67. My son's parole officer said it's gonna be alright!

    @ Female Minister

    AMEN!

  68. mojojojo195

    @ MY SON

    THAT NAME HAS ME CRYING RIGHT NOW LOL

  69. Stuff fly people Like.wordpress.com

    Divorce Court??


  70. WTF I would not go on no divorce court and spill my issues like that. That is degrading. Oh well, maybe this is what they are lead to do.

  71. gina

    THANK YOU MOJO. MY LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST BROUGHT ME OUT OF THIS EMOTIONAL TURMOIL. NO COUNSELORS, BISHOPS, MINISTERS, FRIENDS, OR *****OCIATES, OR COUNSELORS, ONLY JESUS. HE IS MY COMFORT. HE GAVE ME THE INSIGHT AND THE WISDOM. IT TOOK ALMOST A LIFE TIME BUT HE REACHED ME. THESE ARE HUMANS WITH CHARACTER FLAWS. DEMONS ARE ATTACKING THEM THE SAME AS YOU AND I. NO HUMAN BEING IS PERFECT. I AM STILL LEARNING AND GROWING ONLY THROUGH JESUS. HE IS SHOWING ME WHAT LOVE IS. HE IS MY GUIDE. NO IMMORTAL HUMAN BEING. I WILL NEVER GO BACK TO WHAT THE ENEMY BROUGHT TO ME, WHICH WAS A FAUX PAU, FACSIMILIE, OR FAKE. NOT GENUINE, TRUE LOVE. IT ALMOST COST ME MY LIFE.

  72. Grace

    THAT GRACE POSTING ABOVE WAS NOT THE NORMAL GRACE BLOGGER.

    @ GINA

    I THANK YOU FOR YOUR INSIGHT I HOPE OTHER WOMEN ARE READING THIS (AND JUANITA)AND GAIN COURAGE FROM YOUR EXPERIENCE. GOD BLESS

  75. that one girl

    This is a mess. Divorce Court u got 2 be kidding me.

  76. Simply Ecstasy

    Yall don’t know why she felt the need to go on Divorce Court. Maybe this is a way for her to minister to some non church going women who are going through a simular situation. If God lead her to do it then it’s not for us to judge if it’s appropriate or not. If she’s not the woman of God she proclaims to be, she’ll have her judgement day.

  77. mojojojo195

    @ SIMPLY

    I WAS ABOUT TO DISAGREE WITH YOU BUT I READ YOU LAST LINE AND YOU ARE ABSOLUTLY RIGHT

  78. MELEB

    AND YOU QUESTION WHY IT IS A HUGE DECLINE ON PEOPLE ATTENDING CHURCH. BECAUSE PEOPLE LIKE THIS MEDIA W*****S. THE TRY TO PREACH HOLINESS AND THEY CAN EVEN HAVE A DECENT CONVERSTAION WITHOUT BEATEING THENSELVES IN PUBLIC.

  79. Simply Ecstasy

    People don’t attend church for reasons of there own. It has nothing to do with the Mason Bethas and Juanita Bynums. If they believe in God they will find a good leader and church home to attend. Don’t blame the devil and his servents… blame yourselves for not seeking the truth.

  80. Simply Ecstasy

    AND LET ME ADD… if there wasn’t so many people at church JUDGING and looking down on everybody that haven’t totally given their life to the Lord then there would probably be more people in church. GET OFF THE COMPUTER JUDGING and GET YOUR OWN LIVES IN CHECK!

  81. John Doe

    This ***** needs to get really saved and stop this media fame *****!

  82. Lush-Us Lipps

    Vanity is a sin! In many religions vanity is considered a form of self-idolatry.

    This is shameful.

  83. AB

    Why is she going on TV to publicly divorce her husband??? This is a private matter and needs to be handled privately! I am very annoyed!

  84. BadNewsBrown

    sigh..that dudes family is from the same island mine is from. please let us not be related (though I think we are)

    that wedding was SILLY

    showing off jewelery, all kinds of foolishness…and an extended praise break in the middle of a wedding? yeah, i couldnt sit through all of that.


  85. Earlier someone stated women w/out means to hear Bynum speak could hear her testimony by having the case air on Divorce Court.

    If Bynum is led by the Spirit to share her testimony, she would not be doing it in such a forum. The same women w/out means who tune into Divorce Court, could be reached with a word of encouragement by Bynum doing a Public Service Announcement (possibly aired during Divorce Court). She could not only testify, but she would gain credibility by doing a free PSA versus a paid T.V. appearance.

  86. My son's parole officer said it's gonna be alright!

    I agree with Simply as far as the name calling. However, it is one thing to write a book or doing a speaking engagement giving your testimony etc… it’s another thing to actually air your divorce on TV. I’m sorry, it’s just not right.

  87. Old Timer

    I have attended many weddings over my years on earth and I have noticed an interesting correlation between the size of the diamond and the more expensive the dress and ceremony, the quicker the divorce. I’m not sure why it is, but I do notice that couples who spend a lot of money on the diamond and the wedding ceremony tend to get divorced much sooner and more often than couples who don’t.

    I have been married for 30 years and I can tell you that marriage is not about the wedding dress, ceremony, reception, rings, honeymoon or any of the trappings.

    Anyone has any ideas about why this anecdotal evidences might be true?

  88. Simply Ecstasy

    who said she and her soon to be ex husband are even getting paid? and a PSA???? how effective are those 30 second skits???

  89. Cindy Toussaint

    yikes .. when i divorced i didn’t even want to discuss it – everything was settled between us quietly and even family didn’t know that it was official – everyone always *****umed it was a separation turned long .. this is about the hardest period for any individual [at fault or not] so, i really can’t believe that this is to encourage anyone – not this way – not through this medium – i only wish that all of this tv attention pays off for them – as for their wedding, i thoroughly enjoyed watching it [like a nice movie] but never took it seriously, i see they didn’t either.


  90. PSAs are just as effective as two-day reality T.V. drama when you’re head and heart are in the right place.

    I’m not sure you are looking at this situation objectively because from your previous posts, it’s easy to see that you’re a Bynum supporter.

  91. Simply Ecstasy

    To reach the sinners you must go beyond the boundries of the church. I can’t say I agree or disagree but I don’t know how God has chosen to use her so I will go back to my original comment… IF SHE IS DOING THIS FOR THE WRONG REASONS… SHE WILL HAVE TO ANSWER TO GOD and NOT US!

  92. mz.lee

    they both need to go somewhere and sit the heck down


  93. I agree…to reach those who are not saved, one must leave the comforts of the church. I have no problem with finding alternative methods of reaching folks with the Gospel. I do have issues when the actions and words spoken by Bynum are contradictory. I believe Bynum needs to remove herself from the spotlight and fast and pray. Meditating on The Word will allow her to rededicate her committment to God. I truly believe she is an annointed prophetess who’s currently not walking in her gift.

  94. My son's parole officer said it's gonna be alright!

    Cindy, I was thinking the same thing. I too have been through a divorce and it is very painful. When I married, I thought it would be forever. I didn’t want to divorce in private let along on TV. I can’t imagine anyone wanting to do something like this. Once she leave that court room her marriage is over. Well, I do hope that she can get over all this and move forward.


  95. @ Old Timer

    Congratulations on 30 years of marriage! I hope I make it as long.

    “couples who spend a lot of money on the diamond and the wedding ceremony tend to get divorced much sooner and more often than couples who don’t.”

    …should we *****ume you had an itty bitty engagement ring in the beginning? LOL

  96. mojojojo195

    HEY OLD TIMER

    YOU ARE SO RIGHT

  97. P

    She ain’t in no pain, she’s just trying to cash in, as she has through this whole thing.

    And it’s his fault for putting himself in this position. Don’t touch your wife, fellas, except in self-defense.

  98. Say What!

    Everyone’s complaining, but I bet the day it air everyone will be tuned in.

  99. Traydayz -

    Let him without sin,etc, etc. Nice to see christians loving their neighbor. LOL!!!


  100. @MY SONS PAROLE……….WOW I’M NOT EVEN INTERESTED IN THIS STORY ANYMORE…UR NAME SOUNDS JUST AS INTERESTING LOL

    DIVORCE COURT!! THATS LIKE GOING ON JERRY SPRINGER INSTEAD OF OPRAH. DAG. THATS SOME MESS FOR U. AND SINCE WHEN DO SPRIRTUAL LEADERS CAUSE SUCH A DISTRACTION TO THEIR OWN MINISTRIES?

  102. kelleykel

    That heffer knew, he was a crazy-***** Jesus freak. But NOoooo she’s on a higher level than the rest of us. Juanita got the Lord’s Blackberry number. She married because it was profitable. She will divorce for the same damn reason.

    Some of these chitlins will buy anything that PROFITTESS will throw at them. When will we learn?

    Juanita we GET IT! Be empowered, blah blah blah, you were talkin that same mess when you were married to the fool, how is anyone supposed to believe it now? And i don’t know how calculated this all is, but Juanita is startin to look like a media-w*****, desperate to keep herself mentioned…

  105. WordtotheWise

    Oldtimer@3:15>>>I’ve noticed the same thing. I believe it’s because 1) so many people work hard on the wedding and not the marriage, and once the ceremony is over, what’s left?, 2) for a lot of women, this is their “big day” and it’s all about the fantasy of getting marriage that so many women had as young girls – kind of a like Cinderella thing going on; and 3) some just don’t have a clue what marriage is all about.

    That’s my take on it.


  106. This is a prime example of why we should take our eyes off man and woman and keep them on God. When one falls we can still keep looking up. God is not the Aurthur of confusion and He is not pleased with the way this is playing out and causing many to stumble. No that in the end there will be consequence’s to pay. If christ be lifted up, He’ll draw all men unto Himself. But ths feasco is all about themselves and who can benefit the most from their actions


  107. LAYMDJ HERE AGAIN. I READ THE INFORMATION ABOUT JUANITA BEING ON THE SHOW TOMORROW AND IT DOESN’T SOUND LIKE SHE’S ON THERE TO TALK ABOUT HER LIFE IT’S TO ADVOCATE FOR SOMEONE ELSE. JUST KEEP THE COUPLE IN PRAYER BECAUSE AGAIN THIS IS A CASE OF THE LITTLE FOXES.

    And yet many of us will still follow this silly A$$ fool.. Why? straight up disgrace , especially the God to whom she delacres she serves, remember, yall the one following this coonery. She need her A$$ beat again.

    @Simply Ecstasy…. On your comments about people p*****ing judgments, in church, or on the internet. Your statements contradict the very point that you are attempting to make. Your statement defies its very line of reason, and logic. You see, by you making the statement that “people should not judge.” You are inadvertently judging others. Therefore, you sabotaged yourself with your mixed logic.

    And to top it off, your final *****ysis is dead wrong. The world needs judges. For if it were not for earthly judgments, the standards within its societies, would not exist. Leading to complete, and total moral disintegration. Where by the way, the world is close to being. This society needs more judging. It is that very same pacifism, that the church teaches, that has us in the trouble we currently find our selves in today. No, there must be more, not less judgment on earth. The future of our kids, depend heavily on this. What happens after death, may or not be, for God to judge. None of us really know. However what takes place on earth, is defiantly for men, and women to judge. If you don’t believe this fact. Than may I suggest, just going to any court room in American, at any given time of the day. MEN JUGDE MANS ACTIONS ON EARTH!!!!

    Now what God may, or may not do, is not for us to say!!!!!

    What people should really stop doing is –SPEAKING FOR GOD. For you don’t know him. No man or woman knows him. It says that in the very Bible, that you think you speak for. E.


  111. she makes it bad for the women that has or are actually getting abused. ATTENTION W*****. NOW IF SHE SHELLED OUT OVER A MIL TO GET MARRIED, THIS IS NOTHING. SHE IS LOOKIN 4 THE BIG PAYOFF, WHILE MAKING A FOOL OUT OF THIS *****. HE IS STUPID ALSO 4 BEING IN AGREEMENT WITH THIS STUNT. IT’S REALLY SAD AND PATHETIC

    No he didn’t!

    This same guy, right?

    My friend was “hittin” him on the side. Her husband worked a twelve hour shift and would leave around 5pm. This guy would come by around 9 or 10. Once, a snowstorm had hit really bad and her husband didn’t go to work that night. She and her husband were sitting at her breakfast nook the next morning when her husband looked outside and said “there’s a man out here plowing our driveway. I’m going to go out and thank him. She looked out the window and saw it was him and damn near fainted.”

    We STILL get caught up laughing about that one!!!

    This is the reason why you never marry black women. They’re w*****s.

  113. shiko

    it beats reasoning bt one thing i know this woman you’re calling *****, ***** and bla bla i just want to say no one has the right to talk ill of her either you still become no better. i think no one can fire what you’ve not hired. i believe this is where we should all get quiet cos i think if we comment we might get also ourselves in problems with God.bt i know this too shall p***** and they will be forgiven cos God is merciful.


  114. First of all, no one has any business following any man/woman of God. The bible say’s know me for yourself, and in all things get an understanding. It also say’s people perish for the lack of knowledge. Also, trust no man/woman, because what they are today, they may not be tomorrow, seek MY (GOD) face. The problem with some folk is that they get caught up in the person preaching, and not in the word (The Bible). It gives us the guideline on how we should live. Your life should line up with the word of God. I don’t care if you pay your Tithe’s, or how big an offering you give, if your life don’t line up with the word of God, then all what you’re doing means NOTHING. It say’s my SHEEP no my voice, but a STRANGER, it will not follow. God is exposing the WOLVES, hiding in SHEEP clothing. Many more will be exposed, preaching lie’s, behind the Pulpit, for fear of losing their member’s (MONEY). Tithe’s are collected to help the poor, when they are in need, many ministries are PIMPING their member’s, and using Tithe’s to live a luxurious life style, I tell you GOD is angry, and HE is revealing the WOLVES for who they are. They are walking over HELL on tissue paper. I encourage everyone, to get an intimate and personal relationship with GOD. Read your Bible, it is our daily bread. As for that couple, or ex-couple pray for them. God Bless Everyone.

    From seeing her preach, i can tell she is the type of woman to test a man repeatedly. i’m not saying i agree with abuse of women, or anything similar to it. but when i heard this story i wasn’t surprised.

    she is putting a black eye on the black church by taking it public. the sermons already turn me off because they look like produced t.v shows now she has proved my point.

  116. N And Out

    My wife of 16 years is straight KEEPIN’ that 1/4 carat round solitaire on her finger she had from day one. No upgrade EVER. I agree people who get all caught up in symbols, events etc many times are often doing it to impress and stir up envy in others. We were married by a judge in City Hall. 16 years later a wonderful, mutually connected life is in order.

    As for “bowties” I do kinda take exception to the fact that so many Black people like to equate these things with some sort of gayness or something. While a recent fashion trend, if you understand the history behind the bowtie you will understand why so many more intellectual brothers tend to wear them;which I happen to from time to time. Stop the madness people, we have to eliminate all these sick obstacles that we constantly throw in front of Black Men, that causes them to shy away from striving for success.

    A “thug” ain’t gonna keep your bills paid, support OR truly protect you. And he isn’t going to necessarily, give you that ‘thug lovin’ either – isn’t that now a gay thing by the way; LOL?. Now take a man that knows how to make love to your mind as well as your body..now THAT’S “gangsta”!

  117. BadNewsBrown

    wow N and Out you makin sense….as are a lot of these latter posts. interesting.

  118. Jani

    nevrquit i agree with you whole heartedly. I couldn’t have put it better myself.

    Though i think if you are such a postion you lead by example and frankly these two are acting out a soap. It is true that God is doing a cleansing of the so called God peoples, slowly they will all be exposed. Thats why is best to monitor all you preacher watchings on TV because at the end of the day they will be judged to follow God and not the preacher

    Britney is beautiful. She is my favorite. You ppl should leave her alone. It seems Britney is seeking true love online now. I saw her p r o f i l e and photos on the H O T + c e l e b + m i l l i o n a i r e + d a t i n g + s i t e + called “R i c h M a t c h M a k i n g.com”

    My people can you see what this woman is trying to do she wants all the things he do in the dark to come out in the light on her way out to warn the other women. This is not the first he has hit her but now she gets a bigger paycheck from all those fools who look at tv and donate. When all this is over and then she will pick up some other man with money that will feel so sorry for her and all she’s been through. Be careful who you are praying with. NO MAN IS ABOVE SIN.


  122. Come on now why are you p*****ing judgment. None of us were there we don’t know what happened. I don’t know if you have excepted Christ in your life or not, but these are the very statements we don’t make about are sisters and brothers who are proclaiming salvation. We all aught to being for one another. We must encourage one another to stay in Gods will always. Make sure every choice is of our Fathers. This is not about this woman taking money or that beating her. This is about Jesus and how we must pray about this situation. I believe that all saints should be praying right now for the both of them.
