He is a lot of hype...

I like listening to him. Just my personal thought.

I have heard of spreading oneself thin but this is really thin!

Not to mention the expense of Jet fuel, pilots, etc to fly back and forth from the West coast 52 weeks per year.

I have heard a lot of good things about this guy but when I hear stories like this it makes me think someone is too caught up in thinking they are the only one God can use,etc.

I have decided it is almost impossible for these really successful ministries to avoid problems with ego.

Surely out of 300 million people in America there is a good pastor who can devote 100% of his time to that church in California and not spend hundreds of thousands of dollars in jet fuel.

Yep

Don't see how you can focus on the needs of each church.

Seriously, post of the hour on this one.

Is this guy married? What does his wife think of him spending that much time away from her?
