  1. A very personal note to Greg Laurie.

    I am a 93 and 3/4th year old believer in the saving blood of Jesus Christ. My purpose in sending this note is that waaay back at a Congress on Evangelism in Amsterdam. My late wife Anne and I were stewards/ushers/helping wherever.

    Here is what happened on night after the formal program in the large hall. YOU were in a serious conversation with a gentleman whom I do not know whether a believer or not.

    I approached you as per my usher duties and asked if the two of you would mind continuing your conversation a bit further toward the exit. You were most cordial and the two of you moved in that direction. Ever since, and Anne and I were blessed for the opportunity to serve, but ever since I have had an uncomfortable about asking you to “move on.” I would not do it again.

    I would have NEVER known how to get in touch w/you, but this evening on FOX TV this little “nugget” from you came on. Thus, now my opportunity to apologize and ask God’s blessing on you to continue working to bring folks to Jesus….through speaking of writing.

    God bless….in the name of His Son Jesus Christ

  2. I am pleased, though surprised, to have read this. For many years my wife and I have been contributing to Harvest Crusades in the amount of $500/month. Often this offering was very challenging for us financially,
    but we continued steadfastly. I suspect that there were also others like myself. Now I read that Greg Laurie has a net worth of $25,000,000. I would not presume to judge his blessings, however, I have some concerns about how much of our offerings, and others like myself, were actually used to bless the church, and to genuinely reach others (vs. megachurch infrastructure, church concerts, etc.). What percentage of his net worth has been acquired through his books (many of which I have also purchased) ? My other concern is just how such net worth may impact his pastoral leadership. We know of many rock-star pastors with mega-churches have eventually diluted the Gospel message, while being held captive to a lavish lifestyle. Acts 20:28, 1 Timothy 3:1-16, and Mark 10:25 should not go unnoticed.
