That’s true of some black pastors. On the other hand, some white pastors like Joel Osteen shoot just a bit higher, and go for $10 million mansions instead.

A Missouri pastor berated his 'poor' congregation for not honoring him with a new expensive watch he asked for a year ago while reportedly delivering a sermon about 'taking care of God's shepherd.'
Pastor Carlton Funderburke, of Kansas City, was caught calling his congregation 'poor, broke, busted, and disgusted' after they still hadn't bought him an expensive Movado watch - which ranges in price from $395 to $3,295 - since he first asked for it in last year.
'I'm not worth your McDonald's money? I'm not worth your Red Lobster money?' he asked the Church at the Well congregation as he paced around on stage on August 7. 'I ain't worth your St. John Knits - y'all can't afford it no how.

Gee, he might as well just double-down at this point: “Daddy needs a new pair o’ errythang!”
I have a $200CDN Casio that is very nice.
A watch is a watch. You can get $100 Timex that does everything a person wants from a digital watch.
They like their bling don’t they?
Begging for money is not uncommon. Who needs a watch today anyway, every where you look there’s a clock.

What’s good for the shepherd is good for the sheep!😎
Griftin’ for the Lawd!

“Who needs a watch today anyway, every where you look there’s a clock.”
As the kids say today, “you mean a clock with hands?’
And many can’t read it.
I bought my Timex Ironman almost 30 years ago for about $29. I've replaced the battery numerous times as well as the band but it still works like new.
He is a very poor pastor and person, spiritually. It is time for him to get right before the Lord, and begin preaching the Word of God. He is not the shepherd of his flock...more like a wolf.
I had an uncle who was a pastor and felt entitled.
Similar to the mansion Wayne LaPierre wanted the NRA to buy for him for his retirement...
Wonder what part of “Thou shall not covet” he doesn’t understand?
Uh, that’s MAC Donalds
Sacrificing to do ‘God’s work’..
