Before we start twisting our Protestant panties over the recent revelations of obscene largess among the Catholic sea of bishops, lets not forget these beloved evangelicals and their spending habits: Paul and Jan Crouchs Earthly Empire... TBN TBNs Annual Income, Salaries, The Crouch’s Homes, The TBN Building and Private Suites Joel Osteen Lakewood Church and Osteen’s 10.5 million Dollar Home Kenneth Copeland Salaries, 18,280 square foot Parsonage/Housing Allowances, Private Airport for nine aircraft, Travel and Shopping Creflo Dollar Rolls-Royces, private jets, million-dollar Atlanta home and $2.5 million Manhattan apartment Paula (And Randy) White If one can afford a $2.1 million home on Bayshore Boulevard and a $3.5 million Trump Tower condo in New York, giving away a Bentley as a birthday (to Bishop T.D. Jakes) gift is no big deal. Benny Hinn 10 million seaside mansion; a private jet, a Mercedes SUV and convertible, and “layovers” between crusades at the cost of $900 - $3,000 per night at locations including Hawaii, Cancun, London, Milan etc. Joyce Meyer Ministry Headquarters, Sports Cars and Plane, Meyers Irrevocable Trust, Family Compound (including aerial view) and Personal Spending Eddie Long favors Gucci sunglasses, gold necklaces, diamond bracelets, Rolex watches and Bentleys, and says he is on a different scale than the little black preacher sitting over there . Ill say! “Bishop” Elijah Bernard Jordan This meglomaniac takes the proverbial cake, considering that the ceiling of one room in his multi million dollar mansion in an exclusive gated community, features a painting of Jordan on a throne – as God – with his three sons hovering around him as angels. T.D. Jakes $2.6 million luxurious pink brick, seven-bedroom home with swimming pool in the affluent White Rock Lake area of Dallas...next door to the former mansion of oil tycoon H.L. Hunt. John Hagee One of the best paid men on earth Pat Robertson And his empire Fred Price commutes by private jet between his two churches Juanita Bynum A more than a million dollar, black-tie wedding, Swarovski Crystal embellished gown, a 7.76-carat diamond ring and a $4.5 million estate. The Crystal Cathedral This Hollywood church, in the true sense of the word, spent spent between $13 million and $15 million on a lavish production called Creation, then declared bankruptcy. No kidding! Rodney Howard-Browne the bartender of holy laughter James MacDonald A $1.9 million house puts him in some very interesting company Mike Murdock This Wal-Mart guy has a $25,000 Rolex adorning his wrist, and takes notes with a $4,500 fountain pen.
