Today, I watched the video clip of Devon Franklin defending his wife, Meagan Good for exposing her breasts as a pastor's wife while promoting their book, "The Wait".In the book, Devon and Meagan shared their journey of celibacy prior to getting married.
When answering questions from the audience at a church in Los Angeles, one lady decided to let Meagan (and everyone) know how she felt about Meagan’s choice of attire on a magazine cover she recently saw:
“This is not offensive, but I was at the grocery store and I looked at a newssatand and saw you — and your had your breast showing,” said the woman. “So, so, I wasn’t gonna come here, I wasn’t, but the Lord brought me here to see you. You’re beautiful. You are a beautiful young woman and your testimony is awesome. It’s awesome. Amen. Amen! The Lord let me come and push past the judgement, because you have to make sure what you say and what you do match up, you understand?
So, we’re gonna cover up, right?
Devon immediately came to his wife's defence:
“Wait a minue — no! No. Nuh-unh. That is not what we’re here for. She’s not gonna cover up, she gon’ wear what she wants to wear in the name of Jesus…amen. Amen? Amen. Yes she will! God bless you, we love you, I love you dearly but she has been as Christian as she is right now when she wore whatever she wanted to wear, so no we ain’t doing that!”
As chivalrous as it was, I was very uncomfortable with his response. Especially ' She’s not gonna cover up, she gon’ wear what she wants to wear in the name of Jesus…amen. Amen? Amen.'
