We all knew and loved her at Thelma on “Good Times,” the sassy, pretty object of many a teen fantasy during the show’s five-year run in the late 70’s. But BerNadette Stanis has moved on, writing a memoir and continuing to act. The Brooklyn-born actress turns 60 this year, but that’s not slowing her down at all. Stanis is starring in “Behind the Pulpit,” a gospel play about a pastor who’s responsibilities to his church are distracting him from his responsibilities to his own family.
Stanis plays the pastor’s wife and Terrell Phillips, formerly of the R&B group BlackStreet, is the misguided pastor. “My character, Deborah, has a lot of money and she is supporting the church, but the people in the church don’t pay her a lot of mind and they aren’t very appreciative of her work,” Stanis told “Sister 2 Sister.” “She has a son who she is very protective of and her husband doesn’t approve of him at all. [He] neglects us to take care of his church family.” “Behind the Pulpit,” which tours through March, also stars Paul Porter and comedian/actor Li’l JJ.

Woah! I’m really enjoying the template/theme of this site. It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s hard to get that “perfect balance” between user friendliness and visual appeal. I must say you have done a amazing job with this. In addition, the blog loads extremely quick for me on Firefox. Excellent Blog!|
Hi! I know this is kind of off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this site? I’m getting sick and tired of WordPress because I’ve had problems with hackers and I’m looking at alternatives for another platform. I would be awesome if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.|
