I have heard, although I cannot confirm, that they are associated with the Prosperity Gospel. Certainly, I've seen concerns expressed about the rapid growth of such churches in Nigeria and elsewhere in West Africa. Now, it won't be new here; as I said, Rev. Ike is still out there. But, it's hardly progress.Marshall Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02807749717320495495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20406961.post-1160965205857373672006-10-15T21:20:00.000-05:002006-10-15T21:20:00.000-05:00Actually, Susan, it did become my sermon for this ...Actually, Susan, it did become my sermon for this morning. I preach extemporaneously, but I've found recently that some reflections that end up on the blog also end up in sermons.<BR/><BR/>I'm glad you liked it.Marshall Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02807749717320495495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20406961.post-1160923407635412892006-10-15T09:43:00.000-05:002006-10-15T09:43:00.000-05:00Lovely, Marshall.
