Charles Stanley is on record praising his son for his ministry. I don’t get this other than blood being thicker than water. If he was a minister worth his salt he would’ve condemned The heresy that Andy teaches.
Before Andy...some years ago, I tried to watch Charles Stanley. I couldn’t take his dictatorual way of talking.
At one point.. He said No woman will ever teach me. His wife divorced him.. Maybe he was that way at home.
A father will praise a son.. It’s built into fatherhood.
Andy’s church is a large complex of buildings.

Andy Stanley is the founder and senior pastor of North Point Ministries, which has eight churches in the Atlanta area: Browns Bridge Church, Buckhead Church, Decatur City Church, East Cobb Church, Gwinnett Church, Hamilton Mill Church, North Point Community Church, and Woodstock City Church. Andy is also the lead pastor and leads the staff of NPCC in its day-to-day operations and in discerning the ministry needs of those who attend NPCC and those who live in the community.
My opinion.. He is very casual in dress and as a minister.. He has a large congregation.. The casual attitude draws people.. He has a large number of young people.. So large, they have groups so ya don’t get lost in all of it.
My son has gone there. He has 2 sons.. The youth groups are nice.. If you can do the crowds.
It’s a whole different way of “churching”.. Andy draws with his casual approach.. Charles is/was of the old school. As long as God is pleased.. And people meet their Lord.
