TBN: Anybody Here Know These Folks?
 
I have to be honest, when I see the Crouches my instinct is to judge them. I don't like it that I feel that way, I always want to assume the best in people, not the worst. I don't want to judge then falsely. I don't want to judge them based on differences in taste, style, appearance, decor, decorum, stage presence, etc.

It is remarkable what they've accomplished simply based on satellites and their international network of television stations.

I'm sitting here watching Paul, Jan, Matt and wife. I find myself hoping I'm not viewed the same way I see them when I'm on a platform or with a microphone in my hand. They seem like caricatures. But I still don't like how I feel about them. If they are as legit as legit can be, God forgive me for feeling this way and help me get over looking at the book cover!

Anybody here know these people away from the cameras and lights?

Mom and Pop are nuts. I like Matt. He always came off as sincere.

Their foundation teachings are all wrong. My Mother loved them. We had many arguments about them.

Televangelist Rule #1

When you can fake sincerity the money begins to flow.

Never discredit the Discerning of Spirits at work in the life of a Holy Spirit-filled believer. God may be giving you the understanding that something is off...

I find most people confuse discernment with personal tastes.

I know people who grew up with Matt Crouch. They have positive things to say about Crouches.

I get the same feeling when I hear David Bernard and Lee Stoneking.
