Terry MacAlmon leaves worship minister after extra-marital affair revelation

SINGER, pianist and worship leader Terry MacAlmon, who has risen to prominence through his appearances on Christian TV working with such figures as Benny Hinn, has announced that he is stepping down from ministry after having had an extra-marital affair. MacAlmon wrote in a letter to ministry supporters, "I don't have a timeline as to if or when I will return to ministry, but I know I cannot go forward with my soul in this condition."

MacAlmon's wife Greta said she planned to file for legal separation, saying counselling and a restoration process had failed. She said, "At this time Terry has chosen to leave his family, these [counselling] relationships and the ministry," adding that she believes MacAlmon will one day be restored.

Your God given music gift leads me to the throne where his mercy abounds that leads me to repentance indeed true worship that is in truth and spirit is what the lord want, where apostle Paul says 1 Cor 14:15 worshiping with the spirit and worshiping with an understanding oh God help us!

Well, here it is, 2019 and I am just reading about his affair. I am sorry he did this, but I am glad we serve a God who forgives. His music is anointed and I find comfort listening to it, when I am sick. I hope all is well with him and his family as time has gone by.

Hi Terry, I was so drained the other night and you came up in my Spirit so I looked you up on youtube. I spend almost the whole night in prayer in worship. The anointing was so strong, my words were tears for hours as I worshiped along with you, video after video. Especially, "Even So". None of us can judge you, I want to encourage you to continue to minister as a the Bride's Ambassador to heaven. You remind me of David a man after God's own heart. Your worship is pure, genuine, intimate. I believe in these last days before the coming of the Lord, There is a special Grace for the Body of Christ to become a extremely intimate with the Son of God. I asked the Lord the other day. I'm always asking you to come and meet my needs and comfort me. But I asked him let me comfort you Lord, he grieves over mankind, those who have not given there lives to him. He knows there true destiny and he wants everyone to make it into heaven. May our Worship comfort heaven. May the Lord continue to use you my brother. I'll be praying for you, your ministry, your ex-wife and your new wife and family. While I keep a watch on my walk with Jesus Christ, I've been devoted to my wife but I can never get in pride, it's by God's grace that we remain faithful to him and our spouses. Russell Moore, if you ever want someone to just listen and pray. I would like for you to come to our church in Minister one day. We are in Los Angeles, CA.

Terry,
I so love your ministry. It leads me to the throne room of our lovely Saviour.
I have been a Christian for around sixty years and have lots of intimate times very special ones with the Lord, but your music is so anointed. I feel so close to him
I am greatly blest. Please carry on and accept the Lords forgiveness for you.
We love you.
Irene
