Part of the problem with this guy - part of the problem - is when he first arrived he stepped into my kitchen and immediately began to tell me what all he wouldn't be eating. Gave me a list!!

Tuna casserole wasn't on it though.

LOL! I'm very sure this is true. Some of them drive me nuts!

This particular guy I'm thinking of though really was a doozie.

One out of many. Not too bad really.

Now the untouchable subject the evangelist's tithe. An evangelist should offer to pay the tithe at the church he is preaching in. Most will not take them but rather give it back for expenses or tell him to send it back to his pastor or missions. But not to offer is bad form. I NEVER take it. I accept it then generally give it to the evangelist's wife for spending money. But pastors in some area of the country do not feel kindly to an evangelist who does not offer to pay the tithe there. Just a thought.
I always thought the evangelist tithed to his home church. Isn't that who is still considered responsible for him???


Just asking, not throwing stones.

My wife tells of the time they had an Evangelist visiting.

When he heard the dinner meal was "tuna casserole"- all of a sudden he "was fasting."

Same Evangelist comes downstairs dressed in sweats carrying a basketball. Said he wanted to go to the church next door and pray. He goes in the back door, out the front and joined a game in the schoolyard next block over.

He was not evangelizing long.

I remember when evangelizing with my parents some pastors who knew it was our birthdays would have us come to the front or even if it wasn't our birthdays... had us come up to the front and hold the offereing plates and took up a special offering just for us kids... It was embarrasing and great at the same time.. I still remember that...

It was a great blessing to us...as children... and we were pretty young when it happened.. my own father recipocated that many times when he was pastoring with other evangelists & missionary's kids...

Indeed... you have provided proof that the church in Corinth was carnal.

You are aware that this is not an across the board indictment of every church that has existed from then until now? Right?
