I see this thread started yesterday so I'm a bit late. I don't know why but I just never liked this guy that much - not that he isn't sincere but for one I don't like the revolving glass globe - it just gives me the heebs. My best friend loves this guy and has bought his book, You're Best Life Ever." I don't like to judge people but he seems to preach the health & wealth gospel. Also, while I am not RC, I often think of Mother Theresa and how she devoted her life to the poor of India and can't imagine her ever reading a book like that! She is my model for Christlike behavior, though I know I will never even come close to her acts of charity.

I don't assume - as some do - that all TV preachers are in it for the money, but a lot of them have made BIG bucks, living in incredibly expensive homes. Plus, as celebrities, they are subject to all the temptations of fame, adulation, and life on the road. I think it's unfortunate that for many people - pro and con - televangelists ARE Christianity.
