I honor the office and the ministry of my Pastor and Bishop. He was a great man and I owe him a lot - including my respect.
Did you say it was "scary"? Hmmmmmmm now thats a thought!
It was very odd to me that Pastor Jeff Arnold had never heard of Bishop G. E. Patterson who led over 6 million Pentecostals in the Church of God in Christ - the largest Pentecostal movement in the world.
I RESPECTED him enough - NOT to tell him that Bishop Patterson and The Bountiful Blessings Broadcast is on the air around the world on BET, TBN and The Word Network. Of course - why should he know that since he does not have a Television!
I wonder how do some of you know about Bishop Patterson?

I watched him every Sun mornning. I loved the congregational CD they put out, or what I heard of it.
AB do you know who will take his place?
