A group of Detroit protestors stormed into Great Faith Ministries to call attention to pastors who ride in luxury cars as their congregation struggles to make ends meet.
Members of community organization New Era Detroit bum rushed a worship service at Great Faith after growing tired of seeing lead pastor Bishop Wayne T. Jackson living a lavish lifestyle while the community that he “serves” suffers.
Video of the event shows the group walking into the church in the middle of service, demanding “church accountability.” The move comes just days after the church hosted Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.
Check out Detroit‘s Fox 2 report on the scuffle below. (Video at link)
Were they members of the church?
Generally speaking The YBPDLN Ping List is published infrequently, however based on the exploits of the megachurch pastors posts can spike for a season.
Management will not ping members to every thread addressing megachurch pastors, but will tag articles of interest with the KEYWORD: YBPDLN.
If you would like on or off of this list please FReepmail me.

How about the REVEREND Jesse Jackson?
I wouldn’t have thought of you as a ‘Hip Hop Wired’ reader.
I am a complex individual.
Yet another example of the hypocrisy of the progressive left in this country.
While the leftists are screaming loudest about the "separation of church and state", notice that both Jackson and Al Sharpton retained their ministerial credentials.
While on the other side, the day BEFORE he announced as a candidate for the Republican nomination in 1988, Marion G. "Pat" Robertson resigned his ministerial credentials with the Southern Baptist Convention.
A woman i have a good deal of respect for ~former lesbian English Professor at a main liberal university and now the wife of a Reformed Presbyterian Church in North America Pastor and mother~ once compared the biblical words "Enemy" with "Enmity". An enemy is a person, whilst enmity is a trait. Like many theologians before her, she reached the conclusion that while an enemy can become a friend ~with God all things are possible~ enmity is something that can never be reconciled and must be killed or destroyed.
i'm beginning to think that the left as represented by the Democratic Party is in enmity with the American nation and must either repent or face destruction ~of what form comes that destruction, i have no idea.
Seems these thugs would have more of a beef with the White House.
Why are they not going in a protesting their city leaders (democrats)? This is all staged. They don’t like blacks succeeding and they certainly don’t like successful blacks that act respectfully to republicans.
Let’s not forget the “Reverend” Al.
You mean like Jesse Jackson?
Expect to see much more of this. They are not church members. They gave
not one red cent. The left wants to destroy everything
This is an effort to redistribute the wealth from the congregation to the have-nots. Why have the middle man? These anarchists want to tear down the Christian Church and have the money going directly to the needy through taxation.
How about Jeremiah Wright? Didn’t he retire to a 1000,000 dollar home paid for by the, ahem, church?
No protestors for pastor “G’DAMNED AMERICA?”— why just this America /Trump loving Minister. BTW Breaking news for the protestors, 24% of Blacks now supporting Trump FOR JOBS!!!
Of course not.....just shows, the press hasn’t changed one bit......they always have and always will be radicals that will do anything to keep Demonrats in office and will hide things....well, you know what I mean. I don’t want to be redundant.
Gazillionaire pastors are not the best of witness in an impoverished collapsed city like Detroit, right?
But, as the comments to the article suggested, would the agitators have crashed the church service if they had just hosted, not TRUMP, but Hillary Clinton?
Soros has a Leftist disruption mission in full swing in the Catholic Church, now for years and years. Perhaps Protestants will not be immune much longer.
