Television evangelist Juanita Bynum has filed for divorce following an August attack at the hands of estranged husband Bishop Thomas Weeks in a parking lot at the Renaissance Hotel in Atlanta.
“I’m not crying just because I was kicked or I was choked. There’s more to it than that for me. I know that scars heal, but I lost somebody that I loved very much. I know people go through this saying I loved him. No, I love him,” Rev. Juanita said in an interview with MyFox Atlanta.
“This was not the first time that we had had a physical altercation. It’s never been to this degree, never. Shoving. He’s never physically drawn a fist back and hit me, but it’s been pushing and shoving,” she continued.
That was a kickass article. What do I do now?

What is wrong with Juanita? Are you thinking at all. Lord knows I love you and would never disrespect you, but what have you done to contribute to this matter? You have been at church talking about your temper and the time you threw a cell phone at Bishop. I am a woman and I do feel what Bishop did was wrong (hitting you). You need to take time away from your so called “celeb life” and go into your prayer room with the “Pride ” tape. Tell your ontuarage and puffers to leave for a while so you can take time to think. Paula White and her husband are not airing there marriage on cameras, they came to the church with dignity and respect. You and Bishop on the other hand look like a set of teenagers wanting to be seen. We all are stars in Gods eyes and status means nothing. Once you are “alone”, you will think and your mind will become clearer. Think about your private lives being aired all over the world and how many lives you will affect by doing that. Your love for Christ should make you think about someone other than yourself. If your calling for now is to be a advocate for abused women do so with admitting that you have a history of abuse from men years before Bishop. Use your sermons and the word to apply to your life. I don’t want to hear or see anything else about you and Bishop online, telephone or television; take care of this matter in private. Prophetess do things in the spirit and a Godly way, but Juanita is flesh. I love you and I see you and Bishop doing what “GOD” tells you to do, not man. Stop disappointing your families, parents, spiritual children, and black marraiges. Bishop should not be made an example of for this one time beating, but the other men who have abused you should. Reverse rolls by looking at your behavior and Bishop’s behavior. I want to say so much more, but I’m not. I love you and Bishop for life and you two have taught me well. It’s not that major and it’s not all it seems to be because there are other people who are going threw worse situations than a marraige. This too shall pass.

I pray that this is not a get richer plot. Juanita as well as Paula have both gain alot of respect and trust from women. Bold, YES! Bold face liers, if the next punch line is I was abused by my former husband but abused no more.
