THOMAS WEEKS, III IS FED UP: Embattled Bishop plans to speak out.(December 21, 2007)
In the wake of numerous inflammatory press campaigns speaking out from Juanita Bynum-Weeks and her publicist Amy Malone, Bishop Thomas Weeks, III is pushing for a private and amicable resolution in the interest of both his marriage and ministry. Earlier this week, Bishop Weeks retracted the publishing of his memoir, What Love Taught Me. Weeks is, by no means, out to wound or defame his wife. He is simply emphasizing that he is torn between protecting his wife as well as protecting his Atlanta church and ministry at large. Through these trying times, the Bishop has remained quiet and kept the views and accounts of his marriage private, in hopes of a future reconciliation. The desired reconciliation is not for marital purposes, but to bring forth peace between the couple and their families and to bring harmony, healing and calm to the Christian body. Over 1,600 members have left Weeks' ministry due to the one-sided, unopposed attacks, which have been displayed on television, in print and on radio and online media. In addition to negative publicity that the church has received, Weeks' credible entrepreneurial endeavors have suffered. In response to the most recent outcry, a press release on behalf of Mrs. Bynum-Weeks was followed by a radio interview on the syndicated Tom Joyner Morning Show. Bynum-Weeks' brother made malicious statements against Weeks and his church. The Bishop says his silence cannot be contained for much longer. These continued deliberate and assassinating attacks against Bishop Weeks' character have compromised his longstanding pastoral ministry of over 10 years. Weeks wishes to bring closure to this situation so that publicly, corporately and worldwide, members of the Global Destiny Ministries, as well as the body of Christ, can welcome in the New Year on a positive note. In the interest of the church, if there is any further agitation by Mrs. Bynum-Weeks or her publicity team, Bishop Weeks' public relations firm, Double XXposure will be releasing his highly anticipated memoir, What Love Taught Me. With this, the highest level of clarity and truth will be exposed with regard to this matter. At the very least, Bishop Weeks hopes to bring closure to all of the drama that has been stirred up through various media outlets.
