I believe it was heart felt. They both still love one another.
I tell you one thing; I wouldn't let ministry, media, popularity or anything tear up my marriage....ahem, that is, if I still had one....
You live and you learn....it takes two.
Sad....
NO ministry is worth your family....

I agree! Marriage and family should come first-
I am so sorry to hear about your marriage--
I thank God everyday for my husband.
One thing though, if you read his website for the book http://www.whatlovetaughtme.com
He said she was hardly home and traveled a lot and would rest on Sundays-I think it's a little weird that he really thought she should stop traveling and doing what she had done before--
A lot of what she did helped him to do what he was doing-sounds like they went into the marriage not knowing what was expected of the other-

Re: Bishop Weeks New Book "What Love Taught Me"
I don't mean that they or their marriage is repugnant. It's just the whole ego driven driven ministry and celebrity Christian culture thing that is repugnant. Sorry about the misunderstanding. And sorry to come off as so flippant. I just bristle at the whole mega-monster ministry stuff and the slick meisters that people cowtow to in Christian culture, especially on the Charismatic side. I get all nervous at Jakes when he deigns to come out from behind his massive eco-unfriendly pulpit and struts around with his chest all puffed out. The whole arrogance, in-your-face , I'm all that a bag of chips things just rubs me wrong. That's what I think is sad and repugnant. Unfortunately people get caught up in the system and the higher you go the farther you fall, i.e. Weeks/Bynum. The whole thing is sad. And repugnant.

My thing is just because it's massive doesn't exactly mean it's successful in God's eyes. I am not saying that God is not using some of the mega churches in a profound way-but to say that is success-is wrong.
I think what God deems is success and what we think is success, powerful and amazing may not be the same thing as that God does.
We need to seek to please God and go where God leads us, and not be intimidating into thinking if it isn't as grand and big as so n so we're some how less-I just don't think that is true at all.

Re: Bishop Weeks New Book "What Love Taught Me"
He certainly ought to have his say.
As for Juanita Bynum--I don't support her at all. Her ministry (and I use that word lightly) makes a mockery of godly women everywhere. And that is my opinion. I can't stand to watch her or hear her preach/teach.

Re: Bishop Weeks New Book "What Love Taught Me"
I think that since she spilt the beans and went around on the circuit he has a right to tell his side.....the sad thing is he is probably going to make some bucks off of it though

Re: Bishop Weeks New Book "What Love Taught Me"
This whole thing is about ego, ego, and more ego.
Which one is bigger?
Who knows?
Regardless, they are making a mockery of good christianity, much like Bakker and all those that came after him.
We need a return to genuine chrisitianity and get away from all of this hollywood hype.
And, I did not whisper while I said it.
