The only reason that we even talk about Pentecost is because we are in it. But, it is the human experience. The problem with anything is because it has the unregenerate human factor. Whether it is a cult, a religion, police officers, judges, politics, business. People make life choices, either you will do the right thing or not. You have to consider the cost for you, and if you haven't figured it what it will eventually cost you, you will drop the ball while you are on your journey. The guy who was once flipping and somersaulting across POA platform, to the applauds of the Pentecostal elite, is now cursing like Popeye on FB? Pretty much it was apparent to one and all way before he came to where he is now. Sheriff caught punching inmate handcuffed to hospital bed. One, the officer is in his twenties, which youth isn't a preditermanate to you making really bad choices, but it can be . Now that Broward Sheriff has a decision to make which will effect the rest of his journey. Maddix, was loved and hated, still is, our opinions concerning him mean nothing to him, and his family. Our opinions of him sure mean a lot to us, and teach us that what we saw in the beginning was what we always believed. Whether we love him or hate him. People are people, Listen, there are people who LOVE Hillary Clinton and would want her to be president of the world. People who love Joe Biden. You may be one of them.

So, let's put Matt Maddix on our prayer list and hope someday everything will turn out Biblically correct for the chap. His son looks like he loves his father, and that is cool. I hope everyone will pray for this family in Jesus name.

Re: Matt Maddix

Probably wishes he would have stuck with baseball.....

Whatever happened to his wife?

Did she stay in church?

Lots of these guys lose their families in their quest to have "Church growth".

Maybe God is not as interested in their numbers as they think He is.

From what I understand, she has remained faithful to God.

Re: Matt Maddix

I went to his st Pete church for a while. He was definitely wild in his preaching but fed the homeless every single Sunday in the church building after service.
I then went to the church where his wife was attending. She was and is a strong Christian woman.
