In Wild Sermon Illustration, Mike Todd Starts Jumping and Doing Somersaults on Trampoline During Service

Pastor Mike Todd of the Transformation Church has been growing in popularity at an alarming rate, despite his repulsive and controversial behavior. Last year, Todd made headlines for turning tithing into a million-dollar lottery, using his congregants as nothing more than pawns in his sick game. And just a few weeks ago, Todd made headlines again for spitting in his hands and rubbing them all over a congregant’s face during a so-called “sermon.” It’s clear that Todd cares more about shock value and self-promotion than he does about spreading the teachings of the Bible.

In another “sermon” titled “Cuffed To The Cuddle,” Todd decided to demonstrate his point by jumping into bed with a mannequin and simulating inappropriate physical intimacy in front of the entire church. This was a cringeworthy and depraved moment that no one in the audience will soon forget. And let’s not forget the time Todd showed up to preach a sermon wearing a t-shirt with a picture of his wife in a bikini, clearly putting his own ego ahead of his faith and he’s also argued that you can go to gay bars and still be a Christian.

But now, in a really wild “sermon” illustration, Todd starts jumping and doing somersaults on a trampoline while explaining that you need to “stand on God’s word” in order to go “higher.” How stupid that so many people consider this literal circus clown a pastor.

I don’t know, and I’m not sure he’s a true believer in Jesus Christ.

I have heard of “shock jocks” on the radio but not a “shock pastor.” Spitting on his hands and rubbing it on someone’s face? I think that could be viewed as assault in some jurisdictions.

It’s been figured out that churches are an easy way to riches.
And no Uncle Sam in the way, who gets that luxury?

Quite a shame. He actually USED to be an awesome preacher of the Word.

He’s gone WAY off the deep end, loving his own ‘celebrity’ status…
