Stewart-Allen Clark, 55, has been placed on leave after giving a controversial speech on Sunday, February 21
Clark was a preacher at the First General Baptist Church in Malden, Missouri
He told married women in the congregation to practice 'weight control' and 'wear makeup' to keep their husbands' attention
Clark noted that not every woman can be 'the epic trophy wife of all time, like Melania Trump,' but they 'don't need to look like a butch, either'
The footage has since gone viral after being shared by the Friendly Atheist site, prompting a fierce backlash
General Baptist Ministries, First General Baptist's national organization, issued a statement on Facebook about Clark's recent sermon
