They are not money hungry people... he tells stories often of how he has worked 3 and 4 jobs at a time... does he have to now? NOPE! Thank God we have a church over 1000 who love to pay their tithes! They love to give... cant tell you of the services they have given him love offerings of thousands of dollars... ANd he turns and puts it into the building fund or whatever. Or gives it to someone else in need....
He has a church that loves him and he lives very modest compared to what he deserves. He took this church when it had barely over 60 people and in the last 10-15 yrs we have seen massive growth and revival. Starting churches in other countries and states and daughtering so many its hard to count... Yet his love for souls is first and foremost and it shows in everything he does.
We have a very large pastoral staff.. close to or over 20 pastors on staff at our church and they work very hard for what they make and some dont take a salary at all... but they are all so deserving of so much more!
