Scandal :
- In 1988, Frances’ husband Jimmy was involved in a sex scandal with a prostitute, which resulted in a suspension from the Ministry, and ultimately being defrocked by the Assemblies of God.

- Marvin hired his son Randy and son-in-law Garland to stake out a Travel Inn in Baton Rouge, Florida.
- They placed a camera draped in black cloth in the window of room 12 in the hotel.
- A while later, Jimmy arrived with a prostitute and took her to room 7. Garland and Randy let the air out of Jimmy’s tires & immediately called Marvin, who came to the hotel to ask Jimmy what he was doing there.
- The sex scandal resulted in Jimmy’s infamous ‘I have sinned’ speech where he tearfully confessed what he had done to the Ministry, as well as hundreds of members of the Family Worship Center.
- In 1991, Jimmy was involved in another sex scandal with another prostitute, and rather than confessing to the congregation again, he decided to take another approach, telling those at the center that “The Lord told me it’s none of your business.”
