Misogyny in the Pulpit: Casting Stones at Pregnant Women?

Send us a text

In 2025 so-called men of the cloth and church congregations are publicly shaming pregnant women. Bishop Terry W. Jackson from True Vine Apostolic Church in Hampton, Virginia decided it would be a good idea to publicly shame a 19 year old woman because she was pregnant out of so-called wedlock.

 What was the pastor trying to accomplish? Why would her mother co-sign the misogyny? Why would the congregation who largely consists of women be okay with it? Where is the father of the child? Is he a member of the church? Why was he not publicly shamed? He was "fornicating" as well. Why are women and girls held accountable in situations like this and the XY's behavior is not scrutinized?

Listen as Loriann explores and answers those questions and more. Please chime in, in the comments. I would love to hear from you.
