Eddie Long, senior pastor of New Birth Missionary Baptist Church, was accused by five men (Maurice Robinson, Anthony Flagg, Jamal Parris and Spencer LeGrande and Centino Kemp) of sexual misconduct. This scandal blew “the hinges off the church doors” as members exited by the thousands seeking other worship homes. Long has been married to Vanessa Long for 23 years. They share three children together.
