According to the Christian Post, Sarah D. Henson, the daughter of Bishop T.D. Jakes,  is seeking prayers as she plans on going through with her divorce from husband, NFL linebacker Robert Henson. Sarah, who leads the Women’s Ministry at The Potter’s House in Dallas, opened up via her website about her decision to move on from her strained marriage.

“Sarah D. Henson, daughter of Bishop T.D. Jakes, recently announced that she is divorcing her NFL linebacker husband Robert Henson after four years. On her personal website, the bishop’s daughter asked for prayer while explaining that her marriage was ending.

Henson, who reportedly leads the Women’s Ministry at The Potter’s House in Dallas, spoke about building her ministry on being a good wife and trying to make things work before ultimately deciding to go through with a divorce.

“I have built my ministry and identity around being the best wife and a mother I can be. For quite sometime I have tried to steer through some serious troubles at home,” Henson wrote on her personal website, http://www.sarahdhenson.com. “As much as I wanted my marriage to last, it cannot.”
