Re: Songwriter a Fraud

And to think I was going to sing this song tomorrow...not sure now...that is so sad tho because it's a GREAT song!

How did his family miss this???? This is just a bizarre story all the way around. I'm not sure what to think exactly....

Praying for him tho, it sounds like he needs it right now! I wonder why his family did not get him treatment earlier in life.

I understand your hesitating to sing the song.

There did seem to be a few clues in his life. I guess the stigma of mental illness causes a lot of people to overlook things. They seem to focus more on the porn addiction than his mysterious mental issues.

I would agree with that statement; however, because they chose to overlook things they now have a MUCH bigger problem to deal with. I would agree that they're trying to blame it on the porn addiction. I wonder if they blame ALL of his behavior on that addiction? I think there's much more to this story...

Oh there is, for sure-- but I hope we never find out. Hopefully, the whole family can move on and deal with everything in the privacy of Godly counsel.

He touched thousands, if not millions of lives through this song and his fake testimony. He may have been faking the cancer, but I believe that he had a whole lot of sincerity in his actions.

I believe when he ministered to folks personally, he meant it. When he sang that song, he meant it.

You know, I am glad he does not have cancer.

Yes, I agree...I hope we never find out! And I too am glad he does not have cancer and I'll take it a step further...I pray he NEVER gets it!!! I'm not so sure I agree that he had sincerity in his actions, but I do think I understand the point.
