After once again being exposed of having an extramarital affair with another woman, Pastor John Gray went to the pulpit during a virtual Sunday message to address the claims. He also took the opportunity to apologize to his church and his wife Aventer Gray.
The Relentless South Carolina pastor said, “I just want to take this moment to say to you, Relentless Church, the body of Christ, to those who have looked to me as an example of leadership and pastoral oversight, I want to take this moment to tell you, I’m sorry.”
He also added, “I’m sorry for the areas of my life that I left unattended, that I was apathetic about; the areas where I have treated the calling of God, the grace of God and the hand of God casually in my life. For every area of behavior that has dishonored the holiness of God, I want to tell you that I’m sorry. There have been a number of things, blogs; some of them accurate, some of it not. But all of it, my responsibility. I apologize for putting the name of God in harms way and I and I alone take the responsibility for the actions that harmed and injured God’s sheep. No matter how many pseudo-excuses one can hurl in a moment like this, for the purposes of self-preservation, all of them ring hollow when all that is truly needed is the truth. My prayer for you in this moment is that you will use the discernment of the Holy Spirit to see if this is remorse or repentance. I have learned that remorse simply means that I’m sad because you found out. Repentance means I’m sorrowful and I will change.”
The latest woman who exposed the pastor revealed that she had been communicating with John and he has requested risqué pictures from her. She also said that John would talk negatively about his wife’s cooking and even suggested that they were getting a divorce.
The 48-year old woman shared this in an interview with YouTuber Taska K. YouTuber Larry Reid, who originally reported on John’s first infidelity claim, also was a part of Tasha’s show to share his thoughts.
At first, John’s lawyer’s were attempting to put the story off as extortion, but John has now decided to come forward and seek therapy.
Check out his “Face It” moment.
