Crystal Cathedral Megachurch Bankrupt

CHAPTER 11 IS ALL PART OF GOD'S PLAN, PASTOR SAYS

(NEWSER) – California megachurch Crystal Cathedral Ministries has filed for bankruptcy protection amid a flood of lawsuits from unpaid creditors and a steep drop in donations. Officials of the Orange County church, best known for its Hour of Power telecast, say the filing was necessary because creditors refuse to prolong a moratorium on repayment, CNN reports. Services and telecasts will continue, according to a senior pastor.
"Challenging situations are nothing new to our 55-year ministry," said pastor Sheila Schuller Coleman, daughter of church founder Robert Schuller. "Many people said we'd fail when we started our church in a drive-in theater. But look how successful that was!" The Chapter 11 filing "is just one more chapter in the book that He is continuing to write," she added. "We have no doubt His chapter will be good!"

And candidates like Angle and O'Donnell make a mockery of that body.

WTF? Angle and O'Donnell aren't even members of Congress yet. O'Donnell probably will never be one.


The fact they are even running for the Senate is an embarrassment.

Why don't you defend the current members of Congress who are making a mockery out of the legislative process, such as Pelosi and Reid?

I have never been enamored with Reid and have said so. With Pelosi, there is nothing to defend. She is an excellent Speaker of the House.
