Juanita Bynum’s Divorce Is Official

June 23rd, 2008

She and Bishop Weeks had a very public falling out
Bynum

The long and very public marital conflict between televangelists Prophetess Juanita Bynum and Bishop Thomas Weeks III has officially ended. On Friday, in a brief hearing in a suburban Georgia courtroom, Bynum signed her estranged husband’s 15-page settlement agreement, and the high-profile couple’s six-year marriage ceased to be. Bynum filed for divorce shortly after Weeks attacked her in a hotel parking lot – punching, choking and stomping her until a bellman intervened and called the police. Weeks was arrested and later pleaded guilty to assault. Under the divorce agreement, neither Bynum nor Weeks will receive alimony, but Bynum will pay half – $40,000 – of her ex-husband’s legal fees; Bynum will also keep her maiden name. “I said from the beginning of this situation that this, too, shall pass, and it just did,” she said, smiling as she left the courthouse. Said Weeks, “It feels like a new day.” He also expressed a lingering “special love” for Bynum, whom he married in a televised extravagant wedding ceremony in 2002.

I don’t think the marriage was ever suppose to be. I think Juanita likes a show. She could win an Oscar if she continue to act.

Tell those people to keep their lives behind closed doors. Justice41 and Sistah, I agree with both of you. Another case of Pimps in the Pulpit!

Some of these comments are so far out there. It’s like some of you know these two individuals personnally. You know it is to my understanding that we all fall short from the glory of God each and every day. God teahes us that we are human and mistakes will be made no matter who you are. It’s always easy to point fingers at others when they are in trouble. Who said that just because you believe in God that your life will be full of happiest all the time. That is not always the case for those who live on fantasy island. And what I mean is that some of us have been living in reality a lot longer than others.

Keith S….. Juanita put alot of her own business out there way before she got married, Have you watched her tape (No more sheets),and when she first appeared with TD Jakes(Woman thou art loosed tapes). People put alot of themselves out there and then when things go wrong they want us to pretend we know nothing about them or should I say forget what they have said about themselves to capture attention. Maybe if she had not broadcasted her wedding, no one would care, but I think anytime much is put out there, then when things go wrong, all will have an opinion.I do know(she said)she was with alot of men while singing in the choir, lost her mind, and so on and so on, now isn’t that knowing alittle about her? She put it out there no one else, now if I were to say she is an awesome speaker, would you say I claim to know her, no it’s only when it’s bad stuff. She was after all preaching to women about being in the wrong relationships, not remembering we all do fall short from the glory of God.

Is it true some one can post on here using my posted name? I think someone on here wrote that. If so, how can that be and how can it be dealt with?

Perpetual Prosperity Said on

Sure we ALL fall short of the glory, however; when you put Yourself in a position of Spiritual leadership, you MUST “Practice what you Preach.”

If you preach the word of Jesus, then you MUST follow Matthew 19:1-12.

It’s as simple as that. False prophets are spoken of in GOD’s word. Please use your GOD given powers of discernment to be carefull of the PEOPLE YOU decide to follow. I don’t know who you plan to follow, but if there’s a choice of following Ms Bynum’s excuses and the WORD of GOD; me and my house will choose the LORD. Matthew 19:1-12. Read and Heed.

luv4god Said on

Let’s end this plez Juanita. And please don’t call yourself the face of domestic violence. If you want to see domestic violence watch the repeat of Oprah’s program about the woman who was set on fire by her husband. I’m not saying what you (juanita) experienced was not serious but this womans’was burned over 60% of her body and she has to wear a face mask for 23 hours per day.

That’s the face of domestic violence.

people don’t judge too soon. obviously this is a dissappointment to Christ’s body but be rest assured people, His Body has since healed and tomorrow is a brighter day. Christians don’t lose faith. your hope is in God not man.



Terri Said on

Folks, Christian or otherwise. We all have our thoughts on this issue, even I, only the Lord can judge us, man cannot. Remember our Father is omnipresent, and these harsh judgemental words said here will come back to you, when you stand before him and declare you have been his loyal and faithful servant. The Lord will judge the now ex Mr Weeks and Mrs Bynum when their times comes.



Sal Said on

She had no faith in the marriage and it was doomed from day one as she kept her maiden name and even with this divorce she still makes an issue about her maiden name. Disappointing.



Sad Said on

I truly pray for all that is envolved and send my prayers to Juanita and her family and Bishop Weeks. She has definately been afflicted, first the parking lot, then her home, then the public, then people in her ministry, finances, then her marriage, then her father. She needs our prayers. Please pray and don’t add insult to injury. What you sew you shall reap.



Tanakia Garcia Said on

I believe that it is for the best. Our God does not want us to get divorces however, somrtimes situations and circumstances arise where you have to take other actions. I’m also extermely happy that she is talking about Domestic Violence because it is the most under reported crime in this country I know because I’ve been there done that. And if it weren’t for the Grace of God I would not be here. So all praises be to God.



ceasar Said on

money! money! money! is the root to this whole mess. We all should learn from this one.



Dean Brown Said on

Wake up, people everyone sins and with sin there are mistakes made.
Sometimes these mistakes are made over and over again. No one walking this earth today is sin free!

When are Christian Brothers and Sister Fall we must lift them up. Even non believers should be in our prayers. Who do we think we are to be so judgeful of people.

Dr. Bynum has to answer to God and Bishop Weeks has to answer to God, for all of their sins. Commenting on their situation is one thing but blaming and pointing a finger is completely wrong. Almost all of the people who wrote these comments pertaining to this tragedy have sinned. Just because you are not a famous name that does not mean that your sin is kept in secret God sees y ou!

This country is in a mess! We need to pray for the the leaders of this country and stop focussing on this true or untrue information that we receive that infades peoples lives.

Be Blessed
