Scandals At The Altar: 10 Black Church Leaders Who’ve Incited Controversy and Doubt

Reverend Jamal Harrison Bryant
Reverend Jamal Harrison Bryant of Balitmore, MD was the subject of ridicule two years ago after his wife Gizelle filed for divorce. She alleged that her husband committed adultery, and that he displayed “excessively vicious conduct” that caused “reasonable apprehension of bodily suffering so as to render cohabitation unsafe.” The controversy, however, has not put a stronghold on his ministry and popularity. Rev. Bryant continues to pastor Empowerment Temple AME Church, which is the church he and his wife founded in 2000. He is also the spiritual adviser to reality television star Omorosa Manigault-Stallworth and appeared as a counselor on her TV One dating show “The Ultimate Merger.”
