Right! When I first saw this interview and she said this, I was like….”What God we talking about Megan?” Because she really said sometimes God will tell you to do something outside what the Word “Literally” says. No ma’am
I will honestly have more respect for someone who is honest about the fact that they want to live their way and not be bothered. Let’s not start putting God in things He doesn’t have any part of. It’s blasphemy. She knows the God of the Bible does not say or do ANYTHING that goes against His word. I don’t appreciate her for that. God will not be mocked
If Megan’s roles were an issue then Devon should have never married her. She plays in the same roles she’s played before, during and after their marriage. I think it’s more to the story. If Megan’s lifestyle wasn’t his type he would’ve never looked her way.
He’s to blame Devon- he instigated the divorce she had no choice. And then told her that God speaks to you even though it’s against God’s word. They had no biblical grounds for divorce - she said nobody cheated so right there. He is out of order
I don't think we can really judge on what happened when they are both very quiet but I am glad she finally said she did not want the divorce. She wanted it to last because how she felt about him.
I agree with (I don't know his name). There is a lot of putting the blame on Megan for the breakdown of the marriage. My thoughts are he was more comfortable with her type work when married than Christians would want to believe. I remember in one of her interviews, she had a movie with a sex scene and when she talked to him about it, he told her to make it look good. Basically there is more than we know or think of what happened in the marriage and till we do. They are both equally responsible for the breakdown.
YES! Thank you. He knew who she was before and during their courtship. There is more than we can see in Tias marriage too. They are being respectful of each other and their kids. Let me also be clear on my standpoint. I've had two abusive husband's. In both cases, after seeking therapy in thr church, outside the church, I took my child(ren) and left. ONE has the perspective I abandoned him and I am wrong per God. He can shout I just left a million times. I know whose voice I heard that told me to pack. God gives BOTH parties free will. We acknowledge the choice to get married, someone we may not have. We do not always honor the choice of those who choose to be reckless with their blessing
From a Christian perspective this movie starts off making a mockery of Christianity. I've never seen a minister diss a dead person in church. I'm not surprised because Tyler Perry loves to mock God. Also, he seemed to select Megan and Corey because they recently went through public divorce and he can harness that pain which is dark imo. Also, Tyler has a bible buried at his house so everyone has to walk over it. Lastly, megan believes in Christianity where she can do what she wants. Extremely like warm. She used this movie to rewrite history on her divorce which she likely caused.
A pastor with a chip on his shoulder and disdain in his/her heart. Not 1 of us has observed every Pastor. Nor do we know what they would do. She may have said, "I can do what I want." As a message to people who always have an opinion for her life. While married, she put her career on hold and boosted him & his. Everyone with eyes witnessed it. His career boomed & he became known internationally. When she began working again. Divorce came. We will Never know the reason until it's shared. "If," it's shared
@valerieh.1624 you should think about why you feel the need to defend the actions of a woman who is clear she doesn't view the Bible as something she needs to follow. It's not for anyone to convince you. Get off the feminist train and come to earth
So is Megan doing what God wants her to do? EVERY ONE claims to be a “Christian “ in Hollywood. They can wear a cross , but dress and act like they are of the world.
DeVon and Megan announced and divorced publicly. The reasons are known only to them and God were not announced publicly. Just because DeVon defended Megan to that woman regarding the way she dress doesn't mean that DeVon was in agreement with Megan. As a man he was defending his wife against a public attack to which was out of context. That lady came against a man's wife in public and he more than likely felt a need to protect her as he should have. But who is to say they didn't have a discussion about it behind closed doors.
We’d be better off as Christians confessing that we find the fundamental principle of Christianity which is sanctification hard than acting like our personal relationship with God or personal convictions make it ok for us to act in a way that clearly contradicts the teachings of Jesus. One of the last things Jesus prayed for is for us to be sanctified by the truth of the word of God (John 17:17) He literally said why do you call me Lord if you don’t do what I say (Luke 6:46). The issue with many of us including me is that we’re okay with Jesus being our saviour. But what don’t want him to be our Lord. My prayer for every one who truly wants to know God that we would humble ourselves and seek him diligently.
Here’s the thing about human beings and behaviors-unfortunately, we are imperfect. We are also ever changing-sometimes for the better, other times for the worse. We can not predict the future. I would hope that all who marry (especially Christians) go into the union the best intentions, however, there is no guarantee that the best of today will remain tomorrow. We know that everything is spiritual. There are times when people do grow apart, and I’m not speaking in just the trivial sense, though small things can lead to bigger issues. I, of course believe you should try with ALL of your power to make things work, but there may be times when the environment is tense to the point of unhealthiness. A certain level of misery, disdain, hurt, resentment, can be dangerous. Sometimes God will remove you from a situation before your spirit is damaged or life is endangered.
I’m still surprised at the comments that seem to suggest that Megan was the problem or blaming her. I agree with the commentator that speaks to Christians not getting divorced for any reason. whether you are in ministry or not.
Meagan is on a journey. We all have a journey. Let us pray for her, Devon and whoever else. We don't know with certainty what happened in their marriage. Therefore we should not jump to conclusions regarding either one of them.
Respectfully, God called most of us to ABSTINENCE, and some of us to celibacy. Abstinence is only for a time, such as waiting to have sex until marriage. Celibacy is no sex, ever. Now, I don’t know what you were talkin’ about in that last part, lol🤷🏾♀️.
@@leahwilliams156 no I was correct Celibacy can also be for a time. It is a lifestyle. Everyone may not choosen or be called to marriage. I wasn’t wrong and the latter portion of my statement was how she mentioned God called her to be celibate til marriage then she married and although unsaid I felt she might have blamed God for a breakdown in the marriage and that’s an “us” thing. That’s why is important to stay god-centered for the husband and wife. Also, quarreling over the whether it’s celibacy or abstinence is trivial what’s important is to save ourselves for marriage.
Kind correction in intent. We don't stay abstinent to save ourselves for marriage (For what if marriage never comes?) we do so to honor God with our bodies
So, Denzel Washington is also a Christian and he is married. He has roles that he curses and fornicates and does other questionable things, but no one judges him the way people judge Meagan Good? I believe her. It's far easier in Hollywood to fall to unholy things but both of them are proclaiming to love The Lord. Why is it harder to belive her and not Denzel. If it's just the way she dresses that sounds like misogyny to me. I could be wrong though.
Rrrh I heard your argument. There might be a misogynistic bias against Good doing her thing compared to another actor. But Denzel is the worst counterpart you could pick for Good. Denzel’s filmography is hardly as sexual as Megan’s but they have been caring characters with different statures so why not. Now if we step away from the big screen, DW also is not on social media posting himself in certain lights like MG does. So on top of the roles she played in movies that can be discounted as just work, she deliberately decided to present herself/assume a persona in her everyday life that is hmm… interesting for a Christian.
@@MlleNnCo Thank you! Exactly but a lot of women defend her way of dressing. That’s because they are worldly and want to be sexy too. Meagan likes being sexy and exotic, she said so. She goes online everyday to post sexy pics. Her and Denzel is no comparison…pick another woman not Denzel. I feel like she uses God to defend her way of being. I think she’s a sweet lady and I know I don’t know her personally but she has said with her own mouth that God made women to have sexy bodies and she wants to show it off. She looks very uncomfortable when she’s covered up. But she has always been this way, black spandex all the time.. Devon said she was everything he didn’t want but he got to know her. A lot of women and even me. Don’t want to be modest because I have seen men confess with their mouth that they are so Godly but yet they like pics with provocative women.
Definitely, the general biblical discussion about marriage is much needed and a blessing. That said, talking about people’s real marriages/lives or “gossiping” (lol) is not encouraged. I am Saying this with all love and respect, this channel seems to be sincere in its pursuit of Christ. I hope you hear my heart on this. 🩵
I just want to appeal to you guys on this. As was pointed out she was saying that you cannot just do what you want. You all missed something major here and I get it that is where podcast vs writing fails because its not often thought out and heard before just speaking. But please consider. She was in Devons defence saying she used to be angry at him but now believes him to be corageous. The implication here is that whatever was communicated to her led her to believe that he divorced her because he had a conviction that either God told him to or it was right to. Hence her saying he had the courage to divorce her even though people would consider it wrong. Please I beg you listen to that and think it through. You are saying he had no biblical grounds for divorce and by her admission, there was no infidelity. I think the focus is far too much on her here especially because you all took on a responsibility concerning him by inviting him (not her) on your podcast. No one seems to be piecing together that a man a pastor a Christian has seemed to divorce his wife for no biblical reason at all leaving her brokenhearted and abandoned and most of all he has actually sinned with no sense if accountability confession or repentance. (publically) I dont knoa what he has said in private to counsellors or leaders in Christ. However there should ay some point be public confession because they made their witness very I intentionally public. Please reconsider this conversation and bring what is the true matter of concern at the heart of this to the forefront and pray for Devon. What she is actually saying is she was sinfully abandoned. No? Spade a spade.
Interesting conversation. What I can say is that there are a lot of assumptions here. It’s easy to guess, assume and criticize others. Though Christians are supposed to live a certain way, no one is perfect. Every one of us sins. Intent and true relationship with God means a lot. It allows us grace, mercy and forgiveness (if we take the prior steps). We can’t fairly judge because we don’t know what God spoke to her, led her to me through or allowed for His reasons. We’ve seen many in the Bible who weren’t necessarily on the right path be used for God’s glory. Every one has their journey for a reason.
The First Lady that spoke where in that did she say imma do what I want to do? She said she is doing what GOD told her to do. Some of yall crack me up with your responses. It sounds like Meagan is being pre-judged and yall looking for the negative so you can answer. I would love to hear your story so we can have feed back on that …
No ma'am. Having a relationship with Christ means you live according to what he says, not what you think or even feel.. you speak of people judging her. The question is, does her lifestyle & what she says, line up with the word of God.
@taylynn2 I totally agree. It’s very easy to sit back, look in from the outside and judge based on limited information. Based on what was said, I don’t see why people are being so harsh.
@greatfuliam412 Yes, as Christian’s we should behave in ways that align with the word of God. We also have to remember that we are imperfect and all have individual paths. We see in the Bible how God sometimes uses flaws in human behavior for His purpose. Also, we don’t always know what God speaks to an individual or why He does. It may make sense later.
I feel sorry for Meagan Good. I think she means well and is genuine. I do think she's confused and it doesn't seem like her Biblical understanding is flawed. I hope she matures and I wish her the best
What is “Hollywood Christianity”. Either you’re a follower of Christ or not. The standard is the standard. We will all fall short. Thank God for Grace and thank God for Jesus. But Hollywood Christianity is not a thing.
11:16 this was extremely problematic and hypocritical. On one hand saying how can Tia leave her husband outside of abuse or infidelity then excusing Devon because Meagan must have done something wrong (outside of infidelity or abuse). These are the things that push people away from the body of Christ. The double standards and misogyny and bias.
The problem for me is people think God speaks and gives instructions outside His written word. If you get a word from God that contradicts His word. Then its not God. Also this is why having a relationship with God means studying the word.
Tyler really could have chosen anybody because majority of the industry is divorced. There’s might have been more recent than others, but he could have chosen a bunch of different actors and they have divorce.
What GOD was she listening to WHEN she got dressed this morning...... Like seriously..... For real...... My GOD is modest...... CLEAR about a Woman's public appearance......I MEAN it's cute but she's NOT on a beach 🏖️....... Hard to take people like this serious........smh....
Sis said she believes she a professing Christian… off what basis tho?!? Since when does the a person’s Word trump their Fruit?? You’re suppose to give someone the benefit of the doubt until they show you the fruit. When she was married , she admitted she didn’t like the church because they’re judgmental. Megan joined the purity culture when she met Devon. A few failed relationships, and tried something new. Her movies, when she was married were the raunchiest, and PASTOR DEVON approved, telling her to make it look real. She waited till marriage with Devon, but what about Jonathan? Someone will ask her soon in an interview I bet.
If we steer in the direction WE WILL END UP THERE AS OUR DESTINATION She mentioned she didn’t want to be like her mom but she ended up like her mom Idk what she did to prevent it but a Christ walking Christian knows this walk is DAILY
Right I definitely agree. The fact that Christians are sitting here talking about people via the podcast platform is very concerning, especially when they sit here, questioning her faith and where she stands with the Lord. it makes me like where do you stand because last I check this is what God asked us to do not even a little bit. 😳 this is absolutely ridiculous.
Pastor marries an actress. A young beautiful one at that. Everybody was naive. God had nothing to do with any of this. They chose to marry each other and it wasn't a good fit. Period
Marriage has more to do with human responsibility than sovereign choice. If you married "Gods 1st cousin" you have to realize that there is more to marriage than just the bedroom. You have to live in the kitchen, the dining room, the den, & the bathroom. The husband and the life have a responsibility they have to live up to with each other.
Or how about we just admit we don't know anything about Devon or Megan for real beyond what they show us? They know the real and so does God. Why is it so important for us to know this ins and outs behind their divorce? If they were not public figures...no one would care. You know something else the Bible says that no one talks about much, know them that labor AMONG you. We don't know these people from Adam! Keep to your own local body and leaders, pray for the rest of us that profess Christ, and let the Lord judge in the end. If we're not giving an account for them on judgement day, we need to mind our business and/or pray for them. We need to stop being busy bodies. I'm discussing us more as viewers and commentators more than anything said by our brothers and sister in the video. God bless you all❤
THIS!!!!! iIS YHE COMMENY I WAS LOOKING FOR! You hit every point on the head!!! Thank you soooooo much for writing this! Work out your OWN salvation and PRAY FOR EVERYONE ESPECIALLY THOSE IN THE HOUSEHOLD OF FAITH! 💖💛💖💖🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
There was a comment made that “rich people need God less.” I feel that there was an illusion that that’s the case but at the end of the day rich people need God just as bad as anyone else they just Him in a different way.
The Holy Spirit convicts you. Once you encounter the spirit of God, you are changed. Temptation in and of the world remains constant, but the spirit of the Lord convicts (speaks) to you…and in those instances your old ways fall away.
As her husband, he has every right to speak about the way she dresses. If she was dressed as a Christian woman should be as the bible says, then he wouldn't have to defend her.
🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯💅🏽 ok her way of dressing was always under attack. She doesn’t like to cover up and loves the spotlight. When Meaghan married the prince, she gave up acting and the spotlight I walked away a too. This industry is the devil, some of the time it’s not all bad but I wasn’t compromising I walked away. I didn’t want to be a model or do sex or nude scenes. I wouldn’t mind doing a love scene but there was no modest modeling at the time. I’m not Muslim but I wouldn’t mind the attire. Because I feel like trying to fellowship with some Christian women, they too worldly always wanting to post online and dressing provocative. Did you see that video Juanita Bynum did on Christian women? Everything tight and revealing in the church and men see this and they know they wrong. Some women just have a Jezebel and rebellious spirit.
I think we need to hear from D. Franklin as the Man of God to hear his take on agreeing to divorce which is contradictory to The Word of God especially if the justification does not fall in God's permissive will for divorce. I hear Megan's interviews but she could also be sacrilegious in her press to be married and break the "curse on marriage" in her family. The desire not to have kids is not listed in God's permissive will for divorce! Go read Deuteronomy 24:1-2 and Matthew 5:32 and I Corinthians 7:12-15
I would've loved to have seen the couple reach out to a Jerry & Priscilla Shirer or Jonathan & Kanika Evans for counseling and relatability of being a CHRISTIAN first then other roles approved by Christ.
That's why God said you in the world but not of it we don't supposed to depend on our assets and things that we have to feel secure they're nice and comfortable but all I trust and hope is supposed to be in God no matter what we have or don't have it ain't it easy walk of Faith but it is true that's his will he said without faith it is impossible to please him so even when you got a lot of stuff you better have all your faith in God not a man and not and stuff because those are the other gods before him this is why we got to see him first everyday and his kingdom in righteousness so all these things can be added unto us that is coming from God and not the devil when it comes from the devil and even God sometimes we start serving the things but if you truly know you got it from guy you must still thankful for God and should be still driving just as close to God as you did before you got it
I don't believe God told them to be together at all. Devon is a pastor and Megan was always looked at as a sex symbol putting out lustful content even within the marriage. I think Devon was attracted to her (lust) and instead of choosing a wife for not only character but how she presents and shows up to the world he choose someone who is a liability to his calling. I think he left because he finally saw that Meagan wouldn't change and that he made the wrong choice.
I wish the world was perfect. Sometimes we judge from the outside not knowing the nuances of relationships, marriages. Though something may seem small, it may not be in reality. Christians are called to take marriage seriously and do all they can to save their marriage when it seems to be failing, BUT, small things can lead to resentment, hate, abuse, etc..unfortunately. I’d like to think that Devin and Megan prayed extensively before deciding to divorce. And the details may just not be our business. I understand the importance of applying the Bible to modern day situations and circumstances. It’s just difficult, at times, to judge others, especially when we don’t know all the details or have both parties to speak to. I think it would be great for you guys to talk about your own real life experiences, and have those involved on the show. Just an idea.
Firstly let's be honest divorce In the black was an ill written movie. It was not realistic the fasther od the girl was a hypocrite. This movie lacked authenticity
I respect the views of the hosts. However, I am disappointed that the focus of the failed marriage between Megan and Devin continues to fall at Megan’s feet. If we are going to keep real, the responsibility falls on Devon. He chose her as a wife and did a whole book about their courtship. God charges him to love her as Christ loves the Church. Devon wanted the divorce, she didn’t. As head of the home, it was his responsibility to stand with his wife & fight with her for their marriage because they were one flesh. It belongs at Devon’s feet. Megan didn’t want to end the marriage. I believe when she says devastated and went back to God for answers. Yet, ultimately she called him “brave.” What is it about his life that kept him from his marriage.? Why would a wife, after being left by her husband call him “brave?” Was Devon living a lie? Did he need to leave his wife because of some issue or preference, etc that would be cured by him getting married? IJS Let’s keep it biblical. She is not at fault.
For it it was how she kept on saying "God this, God that" but never once mentioned the name of Jesus. John 5;39-42 says "You carefully study the scriptures. You think that they give you eternal life. These same scriptures tell about me but you refuse to come to me to have that life. I don't want praise from you or any human. But I know you, I know that you have no love for God." How do we testify about God without the mention of Jesus? There is no way to God without Jesus. There is no way from God to us without Jesus. Jesus stands between God and us on both ways. You can not say you love God and not love Jesus because even God's greatest display of love was giving us Jesus. We are so okay with being believers without knowing the word of God. The word of God is Jesus. So, how did she hear from God?
They feel they need godless they still need God as much as much as we do but they feel or think they do but they don't need nothing else they think they do or feel they do make that clear nobody needs God's last we all equally need him the same
Pray about it … Megan’s god doesn’t appear to be YAHUAH from the Holy Bible. I’ve recently seen this woman in a picture with a man who is currently exalting himself to be god and goes by the name of Yahweh. She was smiling from ear to ear while throwing up the devil horns peace sign in this photo as well. Fast and pray about it, so the Ruach can lead you into all truth: Daniel 8:23-27, 2 Thessalonians 2:3-17, Isaiah 14:12-14, Daniel 7:23-28
It sounds like Megan grabbed hold of God early in life and now she may have some anger because of the outcome of her marriage. I pray that she doesnt allow her heart to become stone and if it is already He turns it back to flesh. And, that she becomes a better reflection of Christ in all she does, says and wears.
The reason they divorced is not the concern. It's that they divorced period . The word of God says that divorce is not an option for a person that has faith in Him. Yashua never says God allowed divorce He says Moses allowed divorce. Only because of the hardness of the heart, both sides unwilling to give unwilling to forgive that causes divorce. The situation's going on don't matter if we're trusting God almighty, almighty which means all possibilities to His his will will happen if you have the God kind of faith in His Word. He is the God of all possibilities. If we trust him, he can change any situation to lineup with his word. If we trust him if we wait upon the Lord, we don't know which one it was. Was it Megan that refused to wait upon the Lord, or was it her husband that refused to wait up on the Lord? But what we do know is that the hardness of their heart caused them to divorce. They're not trusting god to fulfill his will in their life. His will was thrown to the wayside.
That conversation about having children should have been clearly understood before they got married not afterwards if you locked in afterwards then you locked in for good and you pray together and seek God and ask God to help you all you don't divorce because you're not having kids when you want to have kids the Bible that says except for adultery and I would say possibly physical abuse because he said he calls us to piece when is supposed to be fighting and arguing all the time that's a bad witness for the for the church and for their marriage what divorcing cuz you ain't got kids yet no that's nowhere in the Bible besides that's really on God God allows you to have kids or not I got pregnant while I was on birth control pills don't tell me when God is ready for you to have a baby you going to have a baby condom break whatever you can do all your stuff to want to stop it and still end up pregnant so stop that they wasn't seeking God about it fervently and check in with him and going before him together on the issue.
Hollywood has it’s own Hollywood preachers I think because those actors/ actresses are being taught somehow that it’s ok to do what you will as long as you have a relationship with God that’s fine but if what you wanna do is NOT God’s will then that’s NOT ok, repentance is a MUST do as well as asking God for forgiveness. I think Megan possibly has not read the Holy Bible from front to back because if she did, she would be more considerate not to cause stumbling blocks for people with issues of sexual lust by being seen world wide half dressed and she would not have a seared conscience about it. My question is who is Jesus to her? Had she fully read the Bible to know it for herself ? Is she reading from some Hollywood Bible? Is she surrounded by people that it’s their jobs to keep her from knowing and understanding what the Bible really means? Yes she sounds good but………..
I'm sorry if they wasn't clear that that was going to be a deal-breaker if we didn't have a baby in a certain at the time before they got married it's not a deal-breaker once you get married you need to be seeking God about that and if you didn't want that to happen and you wasn't clear that babies wasn't going to show up when you thought they were going to show up then you should have never got married if you wasn't clear about it that's your fault that's why you supposed to get an understanding in clarity on what this person really wants to do that if they lied from the get-go then they messed up the marriage right there
Yeah if you both are truly Christians and filled with the Holy Spirit and love God more than you love yourself you should be able to work it out other than that somebody had an unequal yoke heart.
There are Christians who curse and drink. It doesn’t negate my walk with God. As a divorced Christian there are phases we go through and I’m not perfect it’s why I need Christ. I’m not at the same place as someone who’s been walking for longer than me but I’m gonna get there. She’s gonna get there.
I TOTALLY UNDERSTANDING WHAT THE YOUNG MAN IN THE CREAM JERSEY WAS SAYING. GENERALLY DAVONT MAY HAVE LEFT BECAUSE MAGAN WAS MAKING POOR , UNGODLY CHOICES. CHOICE OF MOVIE ROLLS TEC
Because of how fast she moved on and who she moved on with ( he’a an abuser of his ex) I think she was mainly the problem. But I also have a feeling their divorce was not biblical (so no abuse or adultery was committed). I don’t think they kept God at the center of their marriage. That’s my theory.
