AY revealed on Instagram that while blogs were publishing damaging narratives about him, his church which he had considered a family quietly distanced itself.
He recalled that his name was even removed from a church event he had already been invited to, simply because of the public backlash.
To avoid whispered conversations and judgmental stares, AY said he chose to worship online instead.
He questioned why public opinion now seems to outweigh a person’s relationship with God, and stressed that scripture does not instruct people to come only after their reputation has been restored.
“He didn’t say, ‘Come after everyone has accepted your story.’ He didn’t say, ‘Come after your reputation has been repaired,’” AY said
He ended with a pointed question , “Who is the church really for?”
