Controversial megachurch pastor Bishop Eddie Long, 63, of New Birth Missionary Baptist Church in Lithonia, Georgia confirmed Tuesday that he is suffering from a “health challenge” unrelated to his new vegan diet that caused drastic weight loss and he is believing God for deliverance.
“I am recovering from a health challenge that I trust God to deliver me from. It is unrelated to the eating for life diet consisting of mostly raw vegetables that I am continuing, as part of a holistic approach to good health,” he said in a statement to The Christian Post without explaining what the health challenge was.
“At this time my family and I are requesting that you respect our privacy. I truly appreciate your prayers and support for me, my loved ones and my beloved New Birth Church Family,” he added.
