'Prophetesses' Who Claim They Can Predict the Future and Heal the Sick Are the Focus of New Lifetime Reality Show Titled 'Preach'
By Nicola Menzie May 6, 2015
Lifetime network has announced the premiere date for a new reality show, or "docuseries" featuring four Christian women who believe God has given them powers "to heal the sick, see the future and rid people of their addictions."
"Known as 'Prophetesses,' these women speak as interpreters through whom the will of God is expressed. In order for their legacy to continue, they must enlist protégés and teach them how to carry on their gift. These 'Queens of the Church' each have different styles and their own special way of delivering God's message, but all are united in their love of the Lord," Lifetime states in a press release.
The four Ohio women at the center of the new six-episode series are: Belinda Scott, described as a "Major Prophetess" and who co-pastors the New Spirit Revival Center Ministries; Taketa Williams, dubbed the "Beyonce of the Preaching World," leads along with her husband, Apostle Roderick A. Williams, Impact Christian Center; Linda Roark, referred to as the "Blue-Eyed Soul Sister," is said to have a "passion is to see people saved, healed, and delivered;" and Kelly Crews, who was described by the network as just developing her own ministry.

Sorry, but stuff like this just makes me sick. I love to see people saved, and I know the Lord can even use false teachers to do that, but they're going so much against scripture and it makes me want to scream. To me it's like a slap in God's face and it makes me angry when my God is dishonored.

Yes, I struggle with the idea that spiritual gifts are used as entertainment in a reality show. Is this not the kind of thing the Lord refused to do?

Controversial Lifetime Show 'Preach' Canceled After 15,000 People Sign Petition; Prophetess Reacts
By Christine Thomasos, Christian Post Reporter June 19, 2015
(L to R) Linda Roark, Taketa Williams, Kelly Crews and Belinda Scott star in Lifetime's all-new docu-series Preach, premiering Friday, June 5, at 10pm ET/PT on Lifetime.
Controversial Lifetime show "Preach," which features four unorthodox Christian prophetesses, is officially off the air after close to 15,000 people petitioned the network to end it. Now Belinda Scott, one of the prophetesses who appeared on the show, is speaking out.
A source at Lifetime Network told The Christian Post that the show was canceled because "it wasn't performing in this current time period."
Some critics argue, however, that a change.org petition is the real reason the show was canceled but the network has denied those claims.
