Just curious, WP. Are you maybe the preacher that ate that $400 lobster? I'm not saying you were or accusing you of it. Just curious. You just seem so defensive.

No. Go ahead and say it: I have no sense of humor. But I do NOT find this funny. I find it disgusting!! I find it greedy. I find it arrogant.

So what do you think? Would Jesus drive a $60,000 car? I don't really know the answer to that. No one does. But in my deepest heart, I have to believe that He would have been much more interested in souls and reaching them for His Kingdom than He would have been about something like this.

Not to impugn Jeanie but I seriously doubt this story something is missing.

If I had been with the wife with the husband who ordered this $400.00 lobster, I would have kicked him under the top and tried to make some gesture (haha) to get him to reconsider. This would have been so embarrassing. I wonder if the wife was along.

Don't you know that the word will spread and those folks won't be taken out to eat very often in other places or invited to speak.

Amen. Apostolics are so retentive. Majoring in minors and minoring in majors.

I'm using the same principle in the Randy and Paula White situation.
