Do you know of any other pastors Oprah liked? Other than Jeremiah Wright?
If your pastor owns the most expensive home in the congregation, collects Ferraris, and owns a jet all on the backs of little old ladies putting their Social Security check in the collection basket and buying his books and DVD's for the hope of his 'Prosperity Gospel' allowing them to buy their medication...
I know of a guy who purchased a property for $200,000 dollars in La Canada, CA. He invested some money in the property and today it’s worth $5 to $7.5 million, perhaps even more. It’s on about five acres.
If you know all the particulars about this pastor’s property, and all the financial dealings of the church, then perhaps you’re right.
He has a congregation of 16,000. Do you honestly think that is made up of only little old ladies turning over their SS checks?
I don’t have an instant negative opinion of other people’s church leaders.
It would seem to me that with 16,000 people watching what this guy is doing, at least some of them would be angry if he’s as bad as you say.
Is his congregation going after him?
