Bankrupt church wants donations for pastor’s sick wife ferried in limo

Some members of a bankrupt Orange County, Calif. megachurch are expressing outrage after
fielding an email request for congregants to deliver food to waiting limos so that it can ferried
to the founder's sick wife. The appeal comes weeks after a lawsuit charged that the founder of
the Crystal Cathedral house of worship, Rev. Robert Schuller, and his family had been paying
themselves lavish salaries and other benefits while the church was in financial straits.

"They've completely depleted the church's funds," one member, Bob Canfield, told the Orange County
Register. "But they have shown that they have absolutely no remorse for what they've done. They're
still being chauffeured around in limos. We, the congregants, have nothing."

robert schuller aka the teacher of Bill Hybels and Rick Warren (the teachers of the lukewarm church creating seeker driven church movement)

is out of touch with reality


I am shocked. NOT

[billiefan2000]

btw, this is what u get when you have seeker driven and prosperity gospel madness in a church like the Crystal Cathedral for years


u get seriously out of touch with reality folks like Schuller


speaking of Schuller: his rich tv preacher buddies at TBN are doing a beg-a-thon currently on TBN

[Forgiven]

The Schullers do not want get-well cards - they would like to "keep her situation under the radar."

The message requests the meals be low in sodium and include items such as fruit, meats, soup and egg dishes such as quiches.

The Schullers don't want people going to their home because they are very private people.



Hopefully they won't mind quiches that do not contain free-range, organic, brown eggs via the finest egg producers in the world.

this should be the catalyst for some house cleaning in our churches when it comes to seeker driven and word of faith peddlers



many people hate christians cause of arrogant out of touch with reality with seeker driven and word of faith peddlers like Schuller

Schullers Say: "Let Us Eat Your Cake - Delivered by Our Limo Drivers"
"....They would appreciate meals over the next three to four weeks. They are to be sent to the church in order to be transported to Arvella [Schuller]. The limo drivers could pick up the dinners or meet in the Tower Lobby around 4:30 p.m." Email sent to Crystal Cathedral members this week requesting food donations for Robert and Arvella Schuller

-------------------------------

It was reported today by the Orange County Register that leaders of the bankrupt Crystal Cathedral church distributed an email request to members that they deliver food to the church to help feed the ailing Robert and Arvella Schuller.

And here's the kicker: the food will be picked up by the "limo drivers" at the church, and then delivered directly to the Schuller home.

These people are millionaires, their children are quite wealthy also, and yet they are asking the church members to bring food to the church to feed the pastor. And they have the brazenness to declare that "limos" will transport the food.

We've gone all the way from "let them eat cake", to now "let us eat YOUR cake, delivered by the limos you're paying for".

Let's be real. This is probably a stunt to garner support for the pastor, to mobilize the peeps so they can feel good about themselves in performing acts of kindness for their spiritual guru. In all likelihood the Schullers won't be eating the food. No public figure in their right mind would consume food delivered by strangers to the church, then transported in "limos" to their home!

But it must feel good to know that you can just ask for food deliveries, and they will show up at your front door delivered by your limo driver!

As Mel Brooks once said, "It's good to be da king."

What can I say?

What can I say?

Schuller reminds me of Shaw (Alan Alda's character) from Tower Heist movie I saw earlier today:


overly arrogant, out of touch with reality and greedy.


too bad there arent Josh Kovacks (Ben Stiller 's charcater) types in our churches who will speak out against folks like Schuller


movie spoiler alert: Shaw gets busted and thrown in jail at the end and I think that is where the prosperity preachers belong:

In orange jumpsuits and a long prison term for fleecing the church with the WOF garbage they have peddled

They will be facing the Ultimate Judge very soon, The Lord Himself. Their jail sentence will be eternal.

Praying for grace and deliverance of the Lord for these people so they have every opportunity to repent while there is still time, Amen.

I don't feel a lot of sympathy for his followers. As a non-christian 14 year old which is the first time I ever heard the Hour of Power program by Schuller I knew there was something wrong about that guy. When I became a Christian a number of years later as a Babe in Christ I certainly knew there was something wrong with Schuller. All those who have sat under Schuller for years without figuring out there was something wrong with his teaching were obviously not sincerely looking for God and His Truth but what they wanted to hear. These people that went to the Crystal Catherdral willingly gave their money, silly them! All I can say is they paid to hear what they wanted to hear and they got their entertainment's worth. If the managers (Schullers) have let their place of business go down the tubes they have no right to complain as they already got what they paid for, the Power of Positive Thinking! Surely they can just think positive and it will all turn out OK.
