Deep Thoughts: Pastor Kenneth Terrell arrested

Pastor Kenneth Terrell arrested

Peaches, religion and pedophiles, Bloomingdale Georgia sounds like a wonderful place to raise a family. Just keep your kids away from church. Pastor Kenneth Terrell was arrested on charges that he molested a girl under the age of 5.

Terrell has a history which includes a previous charge of child abuse. He’s moved his business, New Harvest International Ministries Church, several times. I’m detecting a pretty high sleaze factor here.

According to criminal records, 45-year-old Kenneth Terrell has been in and out of prison since 1982 and has at least ten prior convictions.

Terrell has done time for burglary, attempted burglary, possession of marijuana, possession of a firearm by convicted felon, and the list goes on.

But hey, when you run your own business the rubes have no right to question your authority. It’s the perfect scam for a conman.

I wonder how many of his followers knew of his past? If many did know this is sad to say exactly what he would be hoping for. They wanted to believe that god had helped him to change and they never actually kept an eye on him to make sure. I find it sad that so many will give so much control to another person without looking into his past to see if he deserves it. Yes, I know people do change but would most parents allow their child to be babysit by a former con without someone keeping a close eye on him.

Sad day. Of course some will want to say bad things about the whole Christian community and indict all pastors. But this is about one man who apparently is a fraud. There are some great pastors and I am proud to be in that number. I pray for those affected by this monster.

Let me just jump in right here please; God knows the truth and if we listin to His Word it always proves to be true all in His time. Please, remember does not one man measure up to God. God can even use a jackass to bring His Word to those who are ready. Ken is just a man that God use for a brief moment; as the word say: "WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND". You can not mess with The Lords's Children and have it all!!!! Kenneth Terrell your time has come: and I have held me tounge for over 20yrs and as it is written in Exodus 14:14 - The Lord will fight for you, and you shall hold your peace." Amen

Hi my name is Wanda, and my life has been truely blessed by knowing and having MR.KEN as my pastor and friend. I know deep in my heart and soul this man would never hurt this little boy. People can say what they want.[we all have opinions] BUT the real fact is MR.KEN is a great man. He was truely changed by GOD and sharing GODS word is his life. I dont understand how anyone who knows MR.KEN would even think that this could be true. This is onlys something the devil could do and MR.KEN has NO room for satin.He is totally filled with GOD. If you people want to pull up the past how come I dont see or hear anything about the thousands of kids that MR.KEN has help.

This man has put lots of money and time but most of all HIS LOVE into going to neighbor hoods giving to children. When we would go to these neighbor hoods and these kids would hear the music they would come running out there houses just to give this man a hug with the biggest smiles on there face.Does that sound like a man who is hurting kids? I DONT THINK SO!! So please dont pass judgement on anyone until you have ALLthe facts.God did not bring this man out of the pit just to put him back in. His testimony will be one of the biggest since JOB! We all know JOB NEVER gave up on GOD!! ANYWAY They

less than saints · 748 weeks ago

LIFE is not fair' before', and especially after you break the LAW. A person can do good with intent. If it happens to help you, you should be thankful, but Glory is to GOD. God does allow the wicked to prevail. So all the friends, success, statues, material, and good, does not reflect the heart. I see all these people I know just blabbering as if GOD Himself is among us. I have know him to be below the ministry as wolf chasing sheep. Not a shepherd leading the flock. But to say guilty or not guilty..........David was after God own heart, and he commited adultery, he had her husband killed, he wrote great poetry, and beautiful songs.

A Monster · 741 weeks ago

I've been around this man. He seems to be great with kids... to your face. Abuse doesn't often happen when the doors are open. No, I have never seen him do any abuse towards a child, however... you never see any monster abuse a child. Deeply in my heart, this person needs to be locked up. Put the thought as a molestor & that he was a pastor aside.. He has 27 counts on him, on top of of all the bad that "happened" in church. Jesus will take care of him. I think 27 counts says enough. Then when you read what the 27 counts are... He is no leader. Changed or Not Changed. He is sick in the head and needs help! It will take a miracle! As for Bloomingdale, Ga. It is a beautiful town, do not judge the town or other pastors/preachers! - From the Heart
