Sen. Charles Grassley’s inquiry into the spending of church ministers who promote the “prosperity gospel” has spurred a number of articles about that belief system, including an Associated Press story today about those critical of the movement. One of the ministers under investigation, Atlanta-based Creflo Dollar, is the only one of the six under Grassley’s scrutiny to defy the senator’s request for documents about his church’s spending habits.
That doesn’t surprise me, after having written an in-depth feature about him back in 2001. He may have a lot to hide. By the way, after all the subjects I’ve written about, the search term “Creflo Dollar” has by far driven the most hits to my personal Web site, which amazes me to this day.
