I guess it is their business what they buy with THEIR OWN Money- If they sell books and all , then they should buy w/it what they want - no???

however, let's say they are raising money for hungry children in Africa but instead of using that money for the hungry children, they take a vacation and go on a shopping spree - that would be where the IRS should step in

the reason why is, he has done it before - i forgot now what it was, but he uncovered some other mess one time so now whenever people suspect something is not right, they are starting to turn to him

I see your point but I don't know what can be done about it.

If you are a monthly supporter, do they know where the money goes? I dont think they care...as long as they are sowing seed into the ministry of their choice.

You're right, if I walk up to someone and say I want to sow a 1k seed into your ministry, with no strings attached, and that person needs new tires on their car--what"s wrong with buying new tires? If that makes sense.

In other words, if people give you money, your gonna spend it on yourself! Right?

I have a problem with this. They could even deceive the IRS on their tax return. So, who are they responsible to?
