Clearly, this ain’t your grandma’s Sunday morning service.  

Jamal Bryant, a pastor at the Empowerment Temple in Baltimore, Maryland, has been accused of taking it too far.  Way too far.  Even the hippest of grandmas would have been left mouth agape, clutching her pearls, after this sermon.

The already controversial pastor, whose divorce was was highly publicized due to his own infidelity,  used Chris Brown’s lyrics during a sermon called “I’m My Enemies’ Worst Nightmare,” yelling “Every brother would you tap another brother and say I should have listened to her. God help me, all saints here forgive me but I gotta tell you these hoes ain’t loyal!” 

Not surprisingly, NewsOne reported that the rest of Bryant’s sermon was far from holy, saying it was “full of homophobia, sexism, and misogyny.”

He didn’t stop there, either.  He also had words for “baby mamas.”

Bryant took to his Twitter to defend his wildly inappropriate sermon, saying, “Don’t critique a quote when you never heard message. 20 seconds of a 30 minute message is an incomplete assessment.”

Using pop culture to convey messages has been common in churches, and there are even examples of it in the Bible, when Paul used excerpts from poems by the Greek poet Aratus to preach the Gospel in the book of Acts–but Paul wasn’t calling the womenfolk “hoes” or preaching extreme hypocrisy.

Just saying.
