come on Carp.
don't shadow box your unfortunate experience with ALL preachers.
I understand where u are coming from but in this instance I know they were deserving and didn't bribe people into doing it either

Who cares?

The MSRP for a 2008 Limited Edition Chrysler Town & Country is $37K. I purchased a slightly used (less than 6 months old with 6,000 miles) Jaguar X-type for $26,500. It also came with a 6 yr, 100,000 mile warranty. Nobody would raise an eyebrow at a pastor owning a limited edition town & country or several other cars in the same price range. But because the "Jag" has a name that's recognized as a luxury car people start pointing fingers. You can't always judge a book buy it's cover.

Deserving or not, I have no idea...I am not boxing in anyone.

Thad, how can a preacher preach true and unadulterated separation and yet demand to drive a car that has chrome wheels, or leather, or a luxury name plate, etc...?

I have said before pastors with big names and in big cities (to whom most of this applies) can live in a castle and be driven around in a 24 carat solid gold Lexus limousine for all I care and really it is a blessing to them...it only becomes a problem if the cultural climate in his church is such that blue collar people feel like someone is taking their lamb to the slaughter while the minister's fields are full of sheep.
