He must have wasted a lot of money because he surely made enough to afford such a home.

He made a full time salary from church and from Walk in the Word. Check the 990. I NEVER send in support to a ministry where a well-known pastor also gets a salary from his media ministry.

Aspiring to be a stick in the mud.
