In a lengthy Facebook post, Cherish Every revealed that she dated John-Paul when she was just a teen. He was 19-years-old, and she was 14-years-old.
She wrote, "I was a child but at the time I didn't see an issue, but at 19 obiously he should have!! We dated for a year and I found out he was dating his first wife , Ali while we were together (unbeknownst to her)....She later found out and he lied about it as he continued to do about the MULTITUDE of infidelities the remainder of their marriage."
Cherish said she found out that he was married and called off things. However, she said that John-Paul continued to reach out to her after his first marriage blew up.
She wrote, "This has been hard to watch and keep quite about but I feel it is time to be transparent about it... I attended and graduated from Grand strand academy (later renamed Cathedral Hall Academy). The church and school his father founded and was head master of, which later became Solid Rock. I dated John Paul and dealt with a small amount of his abuse comparatively. JP also contacted me inappropriately after Ali finally left him due to infidelity(around 2016). [He] was not remorseful of his actions to her with others. [He] was upset over the amount of people that left the church that hurt him financially and was quickly shut down on my end."
John-Paul Miller's Ex Speaks Out
Growing up in the church, she said that John-Paul and his father abused members of the congregation. She also said that she would frequent state parks with him and found it weird that Mica died in a park.
She wrote, "I feel I have been a coward in not speaking out and dealing with this privately with my family but I want to say we believe this was Micas last and ohh so important purpose is stop this man from continuing to hurt others and to stop him as a representative of our Lord and savior. I am a Christian and I love the Lord so much and I want to say that what John Paul Miller and Dr Reginald Wayne Miller represents is NOT of God, it is not a representation of Jesus Christ!!!"
God is good and pure and kind and he would NEVER want a man to treat his wife the way JP treated Mica! Please don't let this evil man turn you away from the church. The church of GOD is so beautiful and good and this man is an evil representation of someone that took advantage of that! Don't let the devil win!
