How sad!!
We have to constantly pray for our leaders and pray for ourselves.

(Pastor Charles Jenkins is one of the most talented young preachers we have seen come along in a long time. It is our prayer that he and his family get healed and get the help that they need. Unfortunately, this situation is so damaging all the way around that it is our prayer he is strongly considering resigning or at least taking a long sabbatical so he and his wife can get the healing and help that they need. It is our prayer and hope that he has the class not to do what so many preachers caught in bad situations like this do, and that is, to plough ahead like nothing has happened. It would not benefit him, his wife, his children, the church there, or the body of Christ. After much deliberation, BCNN1 is only reporting this to be fair and balanced to all parties involved, to warn the body of Christ to “be sure your sins will find you out” so don’t get involved in evil situations in the first place, and to encourage the body of Christ not to sit and laugh with the world, but to sit and pray for the saints who have stumbled and fallen, to help pick them up, and to pray for the world “for they know not what they do.”)
According to a blog post published by a former member of Fellowship Chicago, Rae Lewis-Thornton, Pastor Charles Jenkins, who has been embroiled in a scandal involving a naked picture of him being posted online, confessed to his church that he had been involved in an 8-year affair with a woman by the name of Mrs. Mundi Griffin. It is reported that Jenkins made the confession with his wife, Tara Jenkins, by his side on Easter Sunday, April 20, 2014.

Jenkins said that “he had already asked his wife for forgiveness and was now appealing to the church” to do the same. According to the report by Rae Lewis-Thornton, a former church member, Jenkins allegedly named the woman involved in the affair — Mrs. Mundi Griffin (a Chicago businesswoman) — and claimed that she was now extorting him. Mrs. Mundi Griffin, however, denies extorting Rev. Charles Jenkins, and calls him a “liar”. She further told him in a text message, “for you to fabricate a story to defend your reputation and publicize it is irresponsible and disgusting. I have kept our affair a secret even beyond my departure. But you elect to wrongfully defame me across your pulpit.”
While the affair was going on, Mrs. Griffin (who had been married for a year) worked for Fellowship Chicago (then known as Fellowship Missionary Baptist Church) and was paid a salary of $106,000. Jenkins allegedly fired two other church officials in order to hire Griffin and be able to pay her the six-figure salary. Griffin, who joined the church in 2004, left the church after five years, however, she said the affair continued for three years after that.
In her post, Thornton said that she knows Mrs. Griffin personally and interviewed her about the affair. In the interview, Griffin states that Pastor Jenkins had promised to leave his wife for her. Griffin said their relationship “ended on peaceful terms” and that “there was nothing to talk about publicly.”
When the picture of Charles Jenkins appeared on the Obnoxious Blog a few weeks ago, Griffin received a series of text messages from Jenkins in which he accused her of releasing the photo, said he “wanted it to end,” and asked “what will it take to end this.” Those text messages, as posted by Rae Lewis-Thornton, are below:
