Oxygen’s breakout new reality hit ‘Preachers of L.A.’ may be a ratings winner for the network, but that has certainly come at the expense of unflattering reviews from critics and viewers alike.
To add to the drama surrounding the show, Pastor Deitrick Haddon (seen above) – who has battled rumors of infidelity over the past year which was reignited by alleged nude pics leaked this week – seemed most surprised by the show’s well-publicized slamming from fellow megapastor Bishop T.D. Jakes.
After hearing Jakes labelling of the show as “junk”, Haddon phoned into PRAISE 102.5 to respond:
“I have the absolute utmost respect for Bishop TD Jakes and what he represents. I considered him one of our generals in this generation,” he said.
“I was a bit taken back and shocked when I saw his view on the show, being that he’s a forefather in unorthodox, unconventional methods of sharing the Gospel, whether it be through MegaFest or partnering with comedians or Oprah.”
Yes Bishop TD Jake’s is the leading elder for our time. And everything that Derrick. Haddon says or does isn’t right. He has questionable judgement.. He saw the L A project as a asset. He is gifted but won’t summit to any authority. Him putting his self out there like that without considering that he was not guarding his uuncomely parts was in my opinion, was reckless. The program at this point is nothing but trash. and we see the ambition but not the anointing. There is a great deal of fleshly enthusiasm again no anointing. The brothers are a law unto themselves. They are suppose to be so deep but can’t that they display no temperates at all. I’m personally embarrassed by the show. The truth is I would have rather it not aired at all.
