Jamal Bryant Files For Divorce - Wife files Also

This is sad, but God is cleaning up his leaders. We have an issue in my state now dealing with a pastor and teenagers and sex.

Yes, Pastor's are human and they sin and they fall, but when they willfully day after day after day, after day, keep doing the same thing without any guilt and continue to preach as though they have a get out of sin free card God has to expose that.

It is praying time for the church. Before we can become a weapon to the enemy God has to clean us up and he starts with his head/leaders.

Amen....

Many are called but few are chosen....

This is why a) we need to be led to a ministry and b)we need to consistently pray for our leadership and ministries in our respective churches.

I had no idea this was going on and am truly :eek:. I had no idea!!!
 
Wow. That church has really been through a lot.

I remember looking at his website and thinking that something didn't seem right. There were no scriptures or crosses anywhere, just the dashboard of a Mercedes.:ohwell:

I know I went on his website lookin for the prayer section and couldn't find one. I thought it was so odd and maybe I was overlooking it. But I sure found the donation link:lachen:.
 
I hate to say this but I have a feeling that this is going to be a nasty divorce. Check out the article:

Pastor and wife involved in a schism
In divorce court: Megachurch pastor Jamal-Harrison Bryant and his wife of 5 1/2 years, Gizelle Bryant.

She filed in Montgomery County on Jan. 9, alleging adultery. She states in court papers that the pastor makes more than $350,000 a year.

He filed in Baltimore City the same day. His complaint says nothing about cheating. It does state that "there is no hope of reconciliation."

"This is a private matter between Dr. Bryant and his wife, and we'd like to keep this matter private," said Jimmy A. Bell, lawyer for the Empowerment Temple pastor.

The couple have three children, 1-year-old twins and a 3-year-old.
The big question: Who gets the Bentley?


WELL IT'S OUT IN THE OPEN NOW!

Whatever you do, don't become zealous....:nono:

Oh no I'm not. My heart goes out to the First Lady. Yeah, she may have her faults...we all do but still imagine what she had to deal with being in that position? But I feel sorry for the children because they are caught up in the middle of this. I hope this doesn't erupt into a public mud-slinging.

I did not get that at all in you response. Some will always take on the words as if they dealing with something in their own lives. The information I posted was short and a quick version of what the AME Church leaders submitted to the Bishop long before this. Unfortunately, it is all true but said a different way in their report.

Some have made this out as an attack aganist first ladies which is so far from the truth again taking things personally. The problem with this lady came BEFORE he married her and only got worse. How one get's a man is just important to how you keep him. The young people in the church can now see what it looks like on both their parts when you are disobedience to God.

Speaking to people has nothing to do with a title but LOVE for God's people and I can say in Jesus name how this women put her NOSE in the air to people and leadership before and after the marriage. We are not saying that Jamal was not wrong he was dead wrong for marrying her and his sex acts after that. THis is why he sought counseloring to avoid morbid thoughts.

For all you first ladies who believe God gave you your spouse you know the importance of prayer, reading your word, showing love to people and being example but most of all your personal relationship with God. A first lady is a calling which should not be about clothes and shoes. We had so many compliants about this woman that it was driving Jamal crazy and then he has is own issues and his mother's prayers could rescue him this time.

We hope he changes and get counseloring as promised a few years ago but we do not support women of any kind you solicts sex with their alluring spirit especially if the women is carnal and has no intrest in God or his people wife or not. When you walk with God people have to respect you. People are watching your walk and they see out right carnality and it only goes down from there. She is now trying to claim he beat her but this is a fabricated story and we are glad he has his assets protected. She may have to work after all and she did not finish Hampton college but only completed 2 years she was offered help from the leaders of church to help with speaking and english since she had to represent church but she did not appear to be intrested in empowering herself.
 
Bryant's Children thus far

Daughter age 11 - Before marriage - woman A

Daughter age 7 - Before marriage - women B (He just recently acknowledged due to court case against him last Fall which some posted on this site)

Twin Daughters age 2 - From present wife -women C

Daughter age 3 - From present wife - women C

Twin Sons - age 4 months old born Fall 2007(while married) women D; Bryant had a relationship with 17 year old girl in his Church who got pregnant and then Bryant and his friends harassed girl to not give baby his name and to tell others to a point she went into labor early and lost one of the boys. The girl's mother filed charges against him and this was also posted on this site with the court documents.

This man has five kids (alive) by four different women. One kid was conceived with an underaged girl while he was married to his present wife. The most you seem to be able to come up with on this woman is that she doesn't speak to people at the church and she, allegedly, chased him down offering sexual favors (I say allegedly because from the looks of his three out-of-wedlock kids it doesn't take much to catch him).

It seems to me that the people seeking to put the bulk of his problems on his wife are looking for the splinter in her eye while ignoring that big two-by-four plank in his. Favor2000, if most of the people at that church are like you, coming on line spreading rumors about his wife, talking about her behind her back, etc, I don't blame her for not speaking to ya'll. I would talk ya'll either. You guys sound like a pit of poisonous vipers. You seem to be able to quote the bible, but I see no evidence in your posts that you actually follow what the bible says.

We did not expose her mess for reason but some did in other post but again do not take it on. It is beyond this. He two kid when they married.
 
A first lady is a calling which should not be about clothes and shoes. We had so many compliants about this woman that it was driving Jamal crazy and then he has is own issues and his mother's prayers could rescue him this time.

wow at this post.

a first lady is a calling...where in the bible does it talk about God calling women to be first ladies of man-made denominations. first ladies are wives of men who are called to the church. if the first lady had her own calling, she herself would be a minister/pastor and not just a first lady.

you seem more interested in protecting your beloved Jamal instead of calling him on his own issues. a man (especially a pastor) who has so many kids out of wedlock, a kid from an extramarital affair, and obviously no respect for the sanctity of marriage is the person you should be concerned about. he is blatantly disrespecting the Church and God's word.

you uplift that man yet you condemn a woman for not going back to school. :nono:

wow.

wow.
All through these seven 7 pages both were condemned but some only leaped on the women and forgot the comments made about Jamal problems. We are all called to be children of God if a christian regardless of title but leaderships at home and church is important. Some women who posted really took the women info personally and completely overlooked the comments we stated about Jamal bad behavior and blown things out of contents. Some info was shared based on direct questions.
 
this is so crazy... there's def going to be a lot of mudslinging going on. I found this post on LipstickAlley by a former ET member:




I am a Christian, but I am amazed at some of these comments that seem to apologize for this man's behavior. This man has been a womanizer for YEARS. He drives, eats, and lives better than all of the members of his congregation. Don't get me wrong. I think God wants us to be prosperous. However, when his prosperity comes out of the pockets of poor people, then I have a problem. How many of his congregants have become millionaires with him?

I attended EmpowermentTemple during its time at CoppinState and Walbrook. Jamal seemed to be more spiritual and humble when his church was smaller. Now, he just seems to be out of control. Pray for him? People have been annointing this man and praying for his transgressions for years. Jamal doesn't want to stop. He thinks he is invincible. He likes to dwell in sin.

No one is HATING on this man. He put himself in this position of disgrace. I am tired of the excuses. The 'Don't judge him' pleas. The 'He is only human' theology. At what point do we hold these pastors to higher standards? That's why the black church is considered to be a 'feel-good joke' by the rest of the world. Talking loud and saying nothing.

Some of you first lady worshippers are not going to like this. The truth needs to be told. As for Gizelle, she is about as spiritual as my latest Coach bag. She was a Hampton ho who was involved in an AKA indiscretion during her time there. I know many people who went to school with her. I remember when she first started coming to EmpowermentTemple. She was about as interested in the service as a bear is in a cardboard box. She used to sit in her seat, yawn, and look at her watch during the services. I don't feel sorry for her. She got everything she wanted. Money. Status. Fine clothing. An opulent home. People to worship her. She knew what she was getting (in Jamal) when she signed the marriage certificate. She just didn't figure that he would embarrass the mess out of her. Oh, well! Even pretty people get played.

It's amazing that people look on the exterior and call fine-clothing and a pretty face class and dignity. I know people who still hang with her. They still laugh that she is the first lady of a church. She is not a praying woman of God. That (besides her beauty) is probably one of the reasons Jamal married her. She didn't care enough about the bible to hold him accountable for anything.

I no longer attend ET or watch to JB on the television. I have outgrown his 'they are hating on you' and 'God wants you have all of the finest things' sermons. After you have heard three Jamal Bryant sermons, you have everything that he has to say. If Jamal ever gets sick and misses one of his preaching engagements, I can fill in for him. His topics haven't evolved in years.

JB worshippers: Don't let the smooth taste fool ya!

This is 100% true and then some. They both tried to mocked God. Jamal got caught and could not stop. His wife was not only sleeping around Hampton but D.C. right up until they got married. It was a joke to see someone try to lead people with nothing to offer and she was offered help by leaders to work with her but she was not intrested. Both thought sex could hold them but God had to expose them so that the young people can see what will happen if you are disobedient.

I 'know' this spirit behind your words. And angel, it's not good...:nono:. satan has such 'grip' on your heart regarding the tearing down of this woman who has literally possesed your heart.

Frederick Douglas wrote something that I will never forget. "I will allow no man to possess my soul by causing me to hate him."

You hate this woman. There's no mistaken perception or assumption about it, you hate this woman. So much so, that you are blinded to the control that it has over you. Even if you are 'reporting' what others have shared, you've intensified your hatred with further comments about her personally.

You don't know this woman's prayer life. No one does, except her and God. You don't know how often she had sex. Be it with Jamal Bryant or anyone else. That's still her business and God's. No one knows if he did or didn't beat her; no one knows

Hatred and anger have serious repercussions. Serious. God is going to hold you accountable for what you've put out about this woman. I don't have to know her to share this.

Favor, what you are displaying is what really lies within your heart, not this woman's. It comes to it's climax in your last paragraph. Angel, this is a spirit of gossip, a spirit of jealousy, a spirit of unrest. For you will not rest until you've destroyed this woman whom you hate so much. You will not rest until you have a 'following', others to agree and join in with you.

Why? Why do you hate her so? What is it that causes you to hate her instead of loving her in spite of her short comings?

I can say this. Jamal Bryant's church was in an uproar when he finally married. It's a typical reaction in most churches when the Pastor is single than marries. The pattern and the clues are that the Pastor is 'justified' no matter what he does in error and the wife is always the culprit, the blame, the imperfect one. :sad:

Proverbs 29:22: An angry man stirreth up strife, and a furious man aboundeth in transgression.

No matter what she does or doesn't do, she's found at fault. Why? Because she is seen as the intruder to what once was.

Members who cannot accept the 'change' act out and their tongues, are the major weapon. The eyes and the ears fuel the heart which motivates the tongue. For they watch her like a hawk, waiting and looking for something to be found wrong with her. Their ears are always ready and open to hear, what's new that's wrong about her, so that they can have something more to run her down about.

*sigh* :nono: Favor, I know this spirit. It's in every church. It's satan's playground, his social club, his gallows for hanging.

In the book of Esther, Haman did this very thing against the children of God. Absolam did it to his father, King David.

Favor, I know this spirit, and in the name of Jesus I speak to it, it has to leave you and give you peace. This spirit is not for you. :nono:

I love you precious one. :kiss:

The most you seem to be able to come up with on this woman is that she doesn't speak to people at the church and she, allegedly, chased him down offering sexual favors (I say allegedly because from the looks of his three out-of-wedlock kids it doesn't take much to catch him).

In Defense of the Minor

Just lurking here and noticed a couple posts about where were the 17 y.o's parents? Her parents probably thought their child was on the right track and that they were doing the right thing by allowing her to spend time at the church or involved with church activities.

I have read accounts from grown women about how traumatized they were after having affairs with their pastors. I cannot imagine what will happen to this young girl's ability to trust authority figures, and her relationship with her church. I can imagine that scorn is being heaped upon her to her face.

I wouldn't jump to the assumption that just because she engaged in a sexual relationship with an older authority figure that she was somehow hot and out of control. It's easy to see how the authority could have been abused and she could have been taken advantage of in that situation.

I have no idea where all that stuff about his wife is coming from, but I don't see how it would justify having kids outside the marriage.

ITA with this post. I have been praying for that young lady, her parents and her little child.

Yes, he was here...I will do that...yes I will!

Also, sis...he said you are teasing us with that pic of your hair...we want to see more...:yep:
 
This is 100% true and then some. They both tried to mocked God. Jamal got caught and could not stop. His wife was not only sleeping around Hampton but D.C. right up until they got married. It was a joke to see someone try to lead people with nothing to offer and she was offered help by leaders to work with her but she was not intrested. Both thought sex could hold them but God had to expose them so that the young people can see what will happen if you are disobedient.
There has to be an 'overweight fly' on their bedroom wall, taking in a lot of information, for you to know so much about their personal sex life.

No one, besides God, knows what goes on in the heart of a man and his wife, or intimately in their Boudoire. I could never keep count when I was married, and I was there...:rolleyes: :lachen:
 
Yes, he was here...I will do that...yes I will!

Also, sis...he said you are teasing us with that pic of your hair...we want to see more...:yep:
:lachen:I am so 'challenged' with a camera. I'll add some more shots soon. I thought we weren't supposed to show our faces online....(you know what I mean?) :rolleyes:
 
As an ex-first lady, (for some of the very same reasons discussed here) I know how devastating this type of situation is for EVERYONE involved. My marriage crumbled before my eyes. Rumors were rampant. And a great deal of people were hurt.

Lust is a deadly sin. It is relentless and destructive. And it does not care who you are, how many children you have, or what position you hold. If you allow, it will move in; take over; and destroy you.

But there is no destruction that God cannot restore you from--if you seek Him.

So I'm praying for Jamal Bryant; his wife; his children; and the members of that church. There's a war going on and its a lot bigger than any one person or congregation.

"For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. Ephesians 6:12"
 
As an ex-first lady, (for some of the very same reasons discussed here) I know how devastating this type of situation is for EVERYONE involved. My marriage crumbled before my eyes. Rumors were rampant. And a great deal of people were hurt.

Lust is a deadly sin. It is relentless and destructive. And it does not care who you are, how many children you have, or what position you hold. If you allow, it will move in; take over; and destroy you.

But there is no destruction that God cannot restore you from--if you seek Him.

I'm praying too...and I'm so glad that you are here in the Christianity Forum.

Welcome....:grin:
 
ooooooo sooooo right. whew! glad shimmie came and laid out what i was thinking....because she said it much better. :yep:
:kiss: hey angel...

I have over 100 pairs of shoes. Many are the same style, but I wanted different colors to match different ensembles. And I still buy more. There's no room in my closets for all of the clothing that I have, and I still have items I've never worn, still with tags.

Bath and Beauty items, without end; I am a PJ - Product Junkie Supreme; I order online more than I care to confess; it's no wonder my home is such a mess...:rolleyes:

I dread sharing a seat with somone on the train; I give them a frown to make it plain. I don't want to talk to anyone that time of day; and it's not because I want to sit privately and pray...:nono:

So, who am I to speak against this man's wife? :nono:
