Robert Schuller

AT the age of 86, frail televangelist Robert H. Schuller is broke and could soon be homeless.

His family says the man who built the world-famous Crystal Cathedral is destitute after losing a court bid to wrest more than $5 million from the ministry he founded.

What’s more, sources close to the Rev. Schuller – whose “Hour of Power” TV show once reached 20 million viewers – say he’s suffering from the early stages of dementia.

“Some days he’s lucid, and other days he’ll be in a fog,” revealed a former employee of the Crystal Cathedral.

    Seriously? An article linked to the National Enquirer? Can we believers do better than that, please? How about an article of how someone gets into this kind of position, and how to avoid it? Or some real reporting, not a link to a rag.

      I posted that article specifically to rattle the cages of people like you. I didn’t think I’d get a complaint this quickly, though – well done!

    This is a sad state of affairs. We need to pray for Dr. Schuller and his family. As Jesus said we also need “to be watchful that we do not fall into temptation” as well.

    Don, you are doing great work. Please continue to keep us worship leaders abreast of the new things that happen in worship outside our personal ministry fields.

    Thank you for all you do and have done in the last 7 years for my personal growth in ministry.

    Be blessed in Jesus Christ today!
