Wilson’s daughter wrote in a post, “Sometimes we unknowingly share our names with complete strangers. But that does NOT mean we share the same Mission or Faith! I am the daughter of the Great Doctor David E. Wilson. This other David E. Wilson is a man who just so happens to share same name as him.”


Pastor Wilson Is Not the First Texas Pastor to Be the Subject of a Sex Scandal in 2019


Pastor Wilson is not the first Texas-based pastor to become embroiled in a sex scandal. In February 2019, the Christian Post reported that Pastor Joshua Holmes had been shown in a sex tape with “multiple women.” Holmes is based in Kennedale, Texas, just outside of Dallas. The scandal erupted after radio host Larry Reid said that he had been sent a copy of the sex tape. Reid said in his broadcast around the scandal, “This is a sex tape. This is a sexual escapade captured on the phone.” Holmes, a married father of three, had previously been accused of infidelity by a member of his flock, Yasir Wright.
