Iyanla: "fix My Life" -- Gay Preachers -- Part 3 Of 3 ...

I found several church names for Mitchel in Virginia and several youtube videos from 2009.


I can't find a current church for him looks like he has his own trucking company per his linkedin account.

Trucking company? That's interesting. Even in the article up thread, no Church was mentioned that Mitchell is a pastor of.

Perhaps he was 'dismissed' or sat down? ? ?

You reminded me of something. On Iyanla's show, she never mentioned to Mitchell about 'confessing' being gay to 'his' congregation, only Derek. Yet, the show gives the impression that he pastor's a Church.

Hmmmmmmm....

This show's format seems more and more like a pretense. I really don't want to see Oprah and Iyanla mixed up in something like this. Their platform is already based upon a falsehood, they don't need to make it worse by having their integrity smeared, by prearranged untrue formats of their shows. :nono:

I noticed at the end of the show, Iyanla had his two brothers come in to show their support of both his ex-wife and him. She recommended family counseling for the sake of the children, yet in the ending credits, it said that neither of them followed through with the counseling.

This man is just set on being gay. He loves it and defends it. He's dangerous and should not be around children because his beliefs are too dangerous to their souls.

@Shimmie it's too late for that Oprah and Iyanla have been mixed up for years and have mixed others up along the way...we can pray that God removed the scales from their eyes.

I know, you're right Healthy Hair, spiritually these women are far from God and His Word...mixed up, messed up, deceived and deceiving others.

I hate to think of them creating false storylines just to have a show.

ETA: I 'expected' them to go full throttle to validate the gay lifestyle. That's a given. I just didn't expect them to falsify the facts of the backgrounds of these men just to have a show.

I hope I'm making sense here.

@Shimmie no I understand completely

I guess they wouldn't consider it falsifying, what they might be doing is protecting the members (his members May not want to be a part of this nonsense) and location of the church...the Pastors 'came out' not the church...it's sad, but we can expect more of this.

@Shimmie did you watch when the Pace sister s where on, the only one missing was LeShaun they didn't even mention her it made me feel that she didn't want to be a part of it.

It was heart wrenching , to be in church all those years and still be bound up...they suffered a lot of sexual abuse not to mention strict Christian beliefs, their parents knew about at least one of the abuse and seemingly did nothing to help.

I didn't see that episode... from what you've shared I can't imagine how painful it was for them.

And very painful to watch in retrospect, I think they took the show because one of the sisters is gay she is the one that reached out to Iyanla for help...I believe that some of their weight issues stem from their childhood abuse.

Oh my... sexual abuse has very deep pain that has so many manifestations showing how deeply the victim is suffering. They were never allowed to express their pain, let alone grieve from the process and receive their healing.

From the viewing you saw, these women were never vindicated, never protected from the criminals who violated them and their virtue.

Yes that was such a sad show and isn't one of the sisters gay?

You notice how many of the gay/lesbians were sexually abused as children but they or "people" say that was not what "caused" their "gayness" I often wonder if that terrible experience assisted in the lifestyle they now chose....they feel damaged, hurt, ashamed, feel as though no man or woman would want them after being abused by a person of the same sex.......I dunno I often wonder about that......Pastor Derek and one of the Pace sisters even Donnie McClurkin.

@MzRhonda,

You shared this so beautifully. God is going to lead someone here to read your words and it will be the answer to their 'why' and they will be free to move on with God's love and healing and complete deliverance. So many in this life are hurting so deeply because they can't get past the 'why'. Now they will know...why.

These children are having a sexual awareness being forced upon them long before they even have an understanding of what sex is or even knew it existed, upon them... it's stolen innocence.

Molested children know that someone who is very bad is doing something very bad to them, the bad feelings inside follow; of course there's more, yet...

Jesus still delivers in all of His love...

I had another thought today.......there are so many black gay men in the church in some capacity-----pastors or "ministers" of music, gospel singers etc.........why do you think they turn to God and the church? also I don't see as many white gay men in the church in the "leadership" positions as I do black gay men (perhaps they are very low key)

Perhaps this is a discussion for its own thread.
