Noel Jones is a star no one is going to pull his card. I have heard a compliment about Bishop Blake he has stars at his church and does NOT recognize them and tells the members to leave them alone. I heard he said Jesus is the star here. Wrong in his doctrine but right in his approach about this.

I'm a bit confused...first of all, if they were going to have a guest sing, then it should have been "as-is"...not forcing her to be more covered up first.
Secondly, what exactly is the Bishop supposed to have done wrong????
Ask the woman to sing in the first place? Or chide the congregation for judging her appearance?
In my opinion, the most heinous behavior was someone trying to cover up a SINNER with a shawl. Come on. If she was worthy of being asked to sing, then her appearance should have been left alone. If she was too immodest to stand on the platform, then she shouldn't have been asked.

I've spent a bit of time watching Jones. While he is articulate he is also a mile wide and an inch deep....and has no shortage of ego.

I doubt many, if not everyone, there thought she was a sinner.
