Pastors not practicing what they preach is a story as old as time. Not surprising in the least.


Reconcile it with wha? All we know is they are getting divorced. We know nothing about why? Do you?


My friends that are still in Austin said that Brandon had been struggling ever since his accident that killed his friend. He really stopped going to church unless Jen was preaching and closed off.


Wow. I used to go to their church and keep up with some of the staff. I had no idea that Brandon was in an accident. Are you referring to the member of the Grim Guardians Motorcycle Club member who had a bad wreck during the ROT rally in June of 2017? Was Brandon in that accident too? Or are you referring to something else.

These people are so grating and tiring.

And I'm a churchgoing Christian-I've thought this for some years now.

PP doesn’t know. Anyone truly close to the family is not gossiping on a website.

Does anyone even know what has happened?


People very close do, but the general public, no

May 4 she gives a sermon on IG about how the quarantine is exposes problems in relationships and you no longer hide with distractions or something like that. Maybe she was talking about her marriage?

She’s 46, not exactly super young. I don’t think you’re petty. I think it’s more of a need for her to put herself on display a bit. Let’s face it, she’s made a decent living as an influencer and author. I mean it’s quite the phenomenon to be able to utilize digital media and parlay that into several successful book deals, speaking engagements, reality tv shows, etc. I mean, she’s a hell of a marketer and she has to stay in front of, and remain relevant to, those who follow her. They’re the ones who fund her through book purchase and going to her speaking events. Unfortunately, perhaps this life on display has had serious consequences. Who knows?


That's very thoughtful, yes i imagine the glaring spotlight grants both some much needed validation, support and admiration from fans while also a degree of discomfort and lack of control, fears of being shamed by your critics. In those times all you can do is control what you can and my expectation she would do what a typical person might...e.g. lay low, is unrealistic. It's not who she is. And her livelihood is closely tied to her public persona.

Would you say the same if it were a woman married to a man who always needed the spotlight and who put your family on parade all the time online? Who do you think watched the kid and did the daily work of parenting while she was off being a super star?


That is a very good point. I hope he was doing all that!
