Hicktowner, Gnoyles just sent me the following letter that she saw in the “comments” section of a website. It is long but worth the few minutes it will take you to read it:
Greeting to everyone that reads my post. I had been a member of Weeks church for 10yrs. I had worked closely at his side and watched from a far. When I first came to the ministry he was planted in Washington,DC. The first time I heard him speak I knew he was not like any leader I had sat underneath.
He HAD A WAY WITH WORDS!!! God used him in soooo many ways, my GOD I can’t begin to tell you. God used this man to shake me in places I thought was dead. When he married Bynum, it was like all his sacrifice to the Kingdom of God had payed off. God had heard his cry. Well, later he came to Atlanta and me and my wife followed eagerly to do the will of God. Because we worked close to Weeks we were able to see the highs and lows of this man.
He would get VERY ANGRY when things were not done perfect. So angry he would yell at his members and openly during service embarrass them. I never asked questions, I just sat back and prayed. As time went on I would see his car at the church more and more, so much I wondered does he still have a home.
The crazy thing is he never, every, was a pastor that begged for money. As a matter of fact he seemed to focus more on really helping God’s people to achieve NEXT LEVEL LIVING. I believed in the vision God placed in him and supported him. I gave till I had nothing left. After Bynum left he had no one to pimp, so he began flirting with the women and only prophesying to new guest or big givers or should I say big spenders.
He IS NOT approachable, and this has hurt a lot of his members. Many would feel confused how this pastor would ignore them. He was not always like this!!!!! WHAT HAPPENED BISHOP????? I will tell you what happened. He began to become MONEY HUNGRY!!! and began robbing God’s people, especially the women. When the fight took place between him and Bynum it RIPPED the church apart. This happened because He became very cold, and even more distant after the altercation. He never even set up counsel for the many members that were damaged and confused by his mess.
He always would avoid the major details of what happened in the parking lot that night. When ever he confronted the church we were still left lost, confused, and searching for answers. He told us on night he would go to JAIL before he pleaded guilty for something he didn’t do. LOL that was a joke, people who didn’t even go to my church knew what was going on before we did. HE LIED TO THE CHURCH!!! None of in the church leaders would even confront him about this. They were to scared of him, or they were corrupt and didn’t want to lose the POSITION the had!! He only has LEADERS he feels he can control. As a matter of fact we NEVER really knew Weeks next move. We always found out on the news, causing us to ALWAYS BE IN WARFARE ALL THE TIME!!! There are many women he hurt and led on. When he was lonely he flirted with them, if they showed interest back, the were called delusional by WEEKS. Sunday mornings during services go on and on about women wanting him.
As if that was what church was about. I NEEDED the WORD of God, instead I got him talking about women wanting him. He would speak on this more than he even preached. Shortly after he announced to the church he was dating I was happy for him to tell you the truth. I thought it would bring everything full circle. Well, that didn’t happen he started to raise big offerings and ripping God’s people off. He got evicted from the church only because he refused to have fund raisers and other things that could have kept the church afloat when members left. He didn’t even care about the kids to have trips planned or anything. He never fed the hungry, went to the prisons, or had Real outreach in alllll the time I sat under him.
He was quick to say the church was not a bank and was not even helping the faithful members that stood behind him in his storm. Instead he turn homeless members away and gave them info to go seek help else were. When asked about getting a van to pick up the elderly, sick, or those without transportation he simply said he didn’t want to starting doing that because they would never get a car if we do it for them. So in this church you had to meet a certain standard to stay. The bishop standards, there were some who were asked to leave because they didn’t meet these standards. He took pictures of all his members to know who was giving and who was not. If your given was not up to par you got a letter or phone call asking you to LEAVE THE MINISTRY. He didn’t even call about the jobless.
I have never ever seen him even ask who was unemployed. Only cause he could care less. He would walk right by you see you and not even speak. I don’t know Christina, but I do hope she really heard from God on this one, he is crazy!!! He even stood on the pulpit and said, “You don’t want to be with me I AM CRAZY!!! Telling the whole church he is a dysfunctional pastor. He seems to be using her, it just seems FAKE. I am sorry I wrote so much, I am holding a lot concerning Weeks. Hey, maybe I will write a book titled, WHAT THE BISHOP TAUGHT ME. Then maybe he will understand what it feels like to have someone take your personal business and put it in the streets. You know like how he did Bynum with that stupid book he wrote, WHAT LOVE TAUGHT ME. Hmmmm didn’t hit best seller huh.
Maybe because he is a fraud!!! He wrote the book then pulled it off the shelves, claiming he never meant to hurt Bynum. He even apologized online to her world wide, to only turn around days later and smash her heart by still selling the book.
All I have to say in Christina need to watch her back. If he love Bynum sooo much then tried to destroy her because she would not allow him to control her, what more will he do to her. I am afraid for her. Ya it is sweet now but it always is in the beginning. I just hope that God will forgive him, show him his ways, even show him the hurting hearts of the thousands he has scared. I pray that he humbles himself before God. I would hate to see a man that could really be affective in the KINGDOM OF GOD be destroyed by the wickedness of this world
In fairness to Tommy Weeks, Jr. there is no way to verify the accuracy of the letter. It’s up to the reader to choose to believe or toss it out as lies. Sad that the person stayed under that type of ministry for 10 years of his/her life, though, given the clarity that the person has regarding Weeks.
