That tremendous church was built from PRAYER not good preaching. I doubt there has been a church in the history of Oneness Pentecost that has consistently through the years prayed like POA.
Add to that prayer the competent management skills of first GA & Vesta and now Anthony and Mickey and that was a winning combination.
I have never for one second doubted AM's motives or sincerity.

In both cases it is their style that bothers me....
All I see is hype...
Everyone of their sermons seems like one continuos sermon....

To me...AM is the best preacher the UPC has. Not because he puts words together well, which he does, but because of his motives. There is not a greater soul winning preacher, IMO. I think that his passion for what and how he preaches is great. I do appreciate the ones that do not yell either. LH Hardwick, Bro. Goldsberry, etc. They are all great preachers.
I do think that there are alot of preachers that yell and Shockamoo and all the did was waist their voice and energy. I remember when I was a YP and was preaching that the "leaders" of that church told me I had to get wilder and louder. I never was monotone that I know of. I do not believe I was boring either. But I was told to get excited. I did, but I didn't Shockamoo.
Now on the point of prosperity by JF.....
I have watched him more than 100 times. He preaches prosperity, but not that God will make you rich. That is unbiblical. I have heard more messages about fasting, praying and reaching the lost than I have ever heard him preaching about money.
To say that he is preaching prosperity by itself, that is not true at all.
