My mother is a Reverend. For a time, she preached at a drive in theater, from the back of an old box truck. Sometimes in the rain . . .

I have to ask, "Isn't there a better use for a hundred million dollars?"

You have to see this church with your own eyes to believe it. It has an aquarium and four different restaurant facilities on-site, plus a catering service. The name of the street intersection on the main entrance is simply, "Calvary Chapel." As you turn in, the foliage and rocks are decorated like something you see at Disney World, and it spells out the name of the church in huge letters.

Calvary Chapel started when Chuck Smith took over a small church that was about to close back in the 60's. He taught and lived the whole Bible, pure and simple. That church has been growing like crazy ever since because the people are being spiritually fed there.
