Joyce Meyer is the St. Louis area "minister" who has ...

Ever heard of "Life in the Word"?That's Joyce's gig. Her operation was in the same industrial park where my old office was. Used to get a kick out our UPS driver's stories of how she'd constantly be calling his supervisor, trying to get him fired, for making comments like:

"My, that's a nice diamond necklace you've got on, Joyce."
"Wish I had a fur coat to like yours to wear this winter."
"How much are the listeners paying for each of these 'prayer' videos you're shipping?"

Netted enough money between her and her husband to build their very own studio and headquarters building just behind the Biltmore complex. And true to her form, it's as gaudy and as out of place as a festering thumb.

You are so right! WHY should a Christian have diamonds or a fur coat? Don't they know they are supposed to be poor and wear rags! The nerve! [sarcasm off now]

Imagine that!!! A Christian building a state-of-the-art facility to spread the Gospel???? Horror! Whatever is the world coming to??? If I were you I would run though because some of the Excellent teaching that Joyce Meyers does might get on you and you might become a Bible-thumping Christian who actually donates so that others can grow in The Word!

WHEW LOOK OUT WORLD THE CHRISTIANS ARE BEING BLESSED!!

I drive by Joyce's house at least once a week or so and it is far from being a mansion. It is a very nice home with some great landscaping but thats it.

I haven't listened to her in a bit but she is a down to earth speaker with a knack for getting the scripture across to people on their level.

It is not my place to judge her.
