Eddie Long’s New Birth Christian Academy Closes

The ReadyWriter

Bishop Eddie Long’s New Birth Christian Academy is closing its doors after 18 years in operation. I guess this all apart of “God’s operation and the Eddie Long empire shut down”.

The private school’s 200 students learned about the school closing in a letter sent home to their parents and signed by Carlton Donald, the board’s vice-chair.

The school’s tuition ranged from $5,253 for New Birth members to $6,198 for non-members, according to the Atlanta Journal.

The school’s closing is just another step toward the dismantling of Eddie Long’s church empire in Atlanta. The church has laid off staff after losing hundreds of members since Long settled a sexual coercion case filed against him by four former New Birth members who were heterosexual and gay.

Additionally, Bernice King, daughter of the late Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, stepped down as a church elder in May. And 10 former parishioners filed a $1 million lawsuit against Long and the church alleging they lost their life savings in an investment scam.

Long, who temporally stepped down as the church’s senior pastor this month, reportedly used the school as a hunting ground for young males to satisfy his sexual appetite. In court documents, Long was accused of coercing the young men with Bible passages and plying at least two of the boys with cash, trips, gifts and cars to loosen their sexual inhibitions.

Earlier this month, the embattled preacher’s long-suffering wife, Vanessa, announced she was filing for divorce.

      He isn’t in jail because he was slick enough to choose victims that would be too old for him to be prosecuted under Georgia law.

    It’s so unfortunant that the actions of a man, can cause the demise of so many things that were great……This academy served wonderfully in our community….It served plenty of young black men and guided so many of them to college, that would not have otherwise gone. I feel some kind of way that all things good are so closely associated with the wrong doing. I wish that more people, that are closely invoveld with the NB community, and those who know people of the NB community do their part to remind people of the GOOD. But so many will not speak up for fear they’ll be considered empathizers of an alleged pediphile.

  15. Well, well, well Eddie! The good book clearly states that you cannot serve two Masters 😦 Had you been reading it, instead of a manual on how to seduce young men, you would have known this 😦

      1. Coco,
        Anytime man gives into greed and immorality they fall victim to Satan, the father of lies and doomed enemy of God the Father and Jesus the Christ.
        Greed and lust are sins, and harming children is mos def horrible. He was seduced by the evil feeling of them both and instead of “resisting the devil and fleeing him” as the Bible says in James 4:7 and forgetting in Romans 12:1-2 where it states to not be confromed to the world he gave into it.

  28. I heard Eddie Long is still a trip and expect red carpet treatment in and around Atlanta. People say he still parades around like nothing ever happend. He has no shame at all. Well hopefully all the tithes he stacked have been invested by someone other than the guy he allowed to come into his church and rip off his members.
