I tend to agree, I also respect his commitment to serve the community, generally he is a humble man.

But I am always cautious of great personalities, if they fall (and most of us do have missteps here and there) many fall with them, very important for leaders to defer to the Almighty, and avoid personal grandioseness.

Very wise observations., he really is almost "worshipped" for his own self., not necessarily his fault, but his followers., or rather., congregants., and others who look to him as a pastor., he has so far kept his image clean enough, and I do admire the man for his accomplishments and teachings I have learned and been edified by watching his televised services., although I do not agree with him completely in all things.
