John knew how to sell his ministry. His charisma really drew people that were looking for something to fill the void in their heart. I believe there was some authenticity to what he did, which made him even more effective in linking people to himself. But eventually the power plays to consolidate his control over the walk, aided by ruthless people like Marilyn and Gary, undid what good intentions he may have had. Almost everything became a cause to go to war. As usual, the dutiful, servile congregant that believed they were being led by a word from God, paid the highest cost...emotionally, financially etc.
In retrospect, being asked to pray for the death of a leader's wife (or the spirit that moved through her...never could get that right)...should have been a red flag that something was amiss. That's been brought up many times in this forum, and rightfully so.
Insanity!
p.s. I think Oliver Stone would have enjoyed witnessing some of our intercession services.
