I do not know Todd.

I do, however, know someone who drove several rallies to an event with the hopes of having a sick child prayed over. Their account of it spelled out that the whole event was carefully orchestrated, carefully controlled and very fraudulent. They were treated horribly and so were many people they talked to at the event who, like them, went there in good faith. Many left heartbroken. These folks left with a keener sense of the possibility that good Christian folks can often be easily manipulated.

Until I heard this first-hand account, I had no strong opinion.

Our family went three times driving 3.5 hours each way. We had the exact opposite experience. Our one daughter received prayer well after the meeting by the staff and they were very kind. We know dozens of others that have gone and did get healed, many that were on the stage being prayed for by Todd, several from our church and several in other churches. When you say orchestrated and fraudulant what do you mean? Describe that please, I saw nothing of the sort, and neither did my friends that went. We saw people being prayed for in the crowds, we saw compassion. I did not see what you describe. I am giving you a first, second, and third, hand account from the three times we went.
