Atlanta, Georgia mega church pastor, has stepped down from the pulpit after his wife Vanessa files for divorce. Bishop Eddie Long has announced to his congregation that he is taking a leave of absence from his role as the leader of the church.
Bishop Long made the announcement during Sunday morning service, but emphasized that he was just taking temporary leave of absence to take of some family business and not resigning.
“I am still your pastor. You’ll still receive my direction. You’ve given me some weeks to take care of some family business, If you go out there, the news said I stepped down, I haven’t stepped down, I’ve actually stepped up,” he said.
Inside sources say his wife want him to come out openly about the accusation of sexual molestation with young boys before their marriage could be salvaged, but the pastor is adamant he is innocent and would accept responsibility for an offence he did not commit.

Just like Adam and Eve the Devil didnt approach Adam but Eve bcos he knows knows that through Eve he will get Adam, We need praying women, women who will stand their ground,women who will not forget their vows “through thick ‘n thin” women who will submit to their husband no matter what, women who will keep their husband’s weakness behind doors, women who will fight anyone who stand against her family, women who stand by the God’s word. most of all women who will not touch the God’s ANOINTED. LADIES IS ABOUT TIME WE REPENT AND LIVE ACCORDING TO THE WORD.
