Actually this is an old story that has been going on for some time. Turns out the neighbors, not the city was the ones who had the beef with Michael Salman.
Guy really ticked off his neighbors who all sided against him.
From the story: But then Salman announced that he was planning to build a church right there in his backyard. He talked about not just Sunday services, but weeknight Bible studies, a workout room and basketball court, even a Christian day care center.
"He gave us a lecture on the fact that all of us were going to make money on our property, and if we were true Christians, we ought to be willing to sacrifice a little bit," Woods recalls. "You can imagine, a few guys in the audience were all over him for that.
"That meeting is where the real animosity started. He made no effort at being conciliatory or cooperative. That really united the neighbors against him," Woods says. "He was his own worst enemy."

Oh, BTW Sarahjohnson, unless they are baptised by full body immersion, three times forward, in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost, and sit down to receive communion of both bread and grapejuice (non alcoholic) there is always going to be some question about how Christian they really are ~ or maybe you don’t see that.

Calling something or someone Christian doesn't necessarily make it so; neither does calling oneself "pastor" or "prophet" necessarily make you called of God.
"By their fruits, ye shall know them," and this guy has sown some pretty bitter fruit.
Can’t rationalize irrational can you?
Rev. Al said James Brown should be exempt.
So every Christian targeted by mobs of atheists, witches and the State are now ‘Fred Phelps’, huh.
You should live in China. Bible studies in your home are considered highly dangerous and evil there, too. Only communists can meet in their homes. Everyone else is an enemy of the society and State.
Hey, now that I think about it, hasn’t our government named pro-life Christians domestic terrorists...evil like Fred Phelps. I bet you have been raising cain about that little violation of the constitution with our government, too. Maybe they are all Fred Phelps sensitivity offenders. /s/
We most likely do! Do a little research for yourself for once. Bible Studies are held in homes all over Our Great America everyday! Yet, we hear nothing of them being shutdown, nor even harassed. I have held a Bible Study in my home once a week for the last five years, sometimes up to 20-25 participants and never a complaint. I would love to blame this single incident on the Bamster Muslim terrorist in the Oval Office, but I believe the Neighbor’s version on this one. You are welcome to flame me all You wish on this one, I will take it with a grain of Salt!
Dear Sara,
Your logic is termed “AREO FRITTO!” in Milano, Italia!
Psst! Incase your translation skills are not fully developed, I will graciously translate that term for You!
“FRIED AIR!” or as we Americans call it! “HOT AIR!”
TRP
My Gosh, Sara, You really are unusual in your logic! I pray with all of my heart never ever to meet You, ever!
You forgot to mention to the airhead that Obama HUSSEIN claims he is a Christian! Then why does Farrakkon tell his Masses that “Obama is their Prophet from ALLAH!” If Obama was now a real Christian, Farrakkon woulld be calling for his Masses to treat Obama as an “APOSTATE!” which isn’’t pleasant.
You are the only pitiful soul flaming on this thread. You are very insecure.
No one in my neighborhood would harass me about meetings at my house, either. We tend to respect the Bill of Rights in Texas. They still teach about that extremism here.
I’ve hosted a lot of local and State political activities at my house. Targeted DHS domestic terrorist tea party organizers have met here! As a result, often cars line the streets and shadey characters enter my neighborhood. The dirty Christians have been known to come over here, too. We even have parties over here and play music.
If I did have a witch hunter in the hood, the town would tell the idiot to move to China and I would be much worse than the ‘demon’ in this article was to the ‘neighbors.’ I would empty the garage and park my cars in front of the ring leader’s house 24/7 and I would call the police on them every chance I got. Unlike you, the constitution means something to me and domestic enemies of that consitution can go to hell in their hand basket.
You really are bizarre as others have expressed also! I take your comment as a wonderful commendation! Enjoy your great angry poisoned perspectives of life in Our Great America! Ciao’
I note that I first forecast what I expected your twisted rebuttal would be! Thank you for confirming my forecast!
I am indebted to You for that wonderful confirmation! Thank you with great graciousness.....:-)!
Now I appreciate Rush even more when he confirms he is right 99.87% of the time! WOW!
Ciao’
