Crystal Cathedral Younger Rev. A. Schuller Ousted, Fired for Disobedience to Daddy or Rev. Robert H. Schuller Senior

Church founder Robert H. Schuller removed his son as the sole preacher on the 39-year-old TV show after the younger Schuller refused to rotate his role with other pastors. That's after three years of continuous request that he rotates ministers! It goes without saying that the Younger Schuller thought it was his daddy's ministry and that he could not get fired.

Daddy had a few surprises under his sleeves for his son!

Rev. Robert H. Schuller would not want to see his ministry destroyed because of his son's disobedience. So he did the right thing by sending him packing. What started as an internal fight between father, son and other ministers is finally revealed to the public. Rev. Robert H. Schuller did his best to work things out with his son. What greater honors he has had to have a son follow in his footsteps or replace him on the pulpit some day? But he could not let Satan get into his son to try to destroy years of hard labor.

Leaving things untouched would be a bad message to the other ministers and the rest of the church. Apparently, the younger Schuller remains in good standing with his denomination. He is still a pastor within the Reformed Church of America.

It has been announced that he is looking forward to starting his own ministry. At this point, he wants to run his own business, well, the church business!


The Younger Schuller may be stung by the entrepreneurial preaching, evangelizing bug. It is time for him to spread his wings!

"
The timing of all this has a sort of rotten egg aroma to it, does it not?
Robert Schuller senior says, “I was called to start a mission, not a church. There is a difference. . . . You don’t try to preach . . . what is sin and what isn’t sin. A mission is a place where you ask nonbelievers to come and find faith and hope and feel love. We’re a mission first, a church second.”
“Because of that, we don’t want one face . . . to be a spokesman.” Yet that didn’t enter into Robert H Schuller’s mind for those first 35 years as it was only until his son began to preach sermons using Bible verses quite liberally."

Barack Obama will lead the USA in the fitness race against Russian Premier Vladimir Putin, shown either fishing or hunting in various pictures. The peoples of the United States and Russia will participate in this race for survival. According to various reports, Russian women are getting as fat as American women. Those who can afford to have baratric surgery in both countries are trying to shed the weight. Now their leaders are starting a new war, the war on fat, the war on bulge.

Let us support them so they can lead us to better health!

How I will Miss President George W. Bush's Sense of Humor: He Saw Size of Flying Shoe Missile

Who is not going to meet President Bush when he leaves the White House in January? I guess many of us who like his sense of humor will miss him secretly. He knows how to give, cause and take a joke. He does not take himself seriously at all. He does not care whether he is the butt of jokes. While dodging the shoe missile, he had the time to notice the size of the man's foot. In that way, he sets the precedent for many future presidents. While he could have this guy and his entire family killed, he chose to use humor to deflect such a serious assault. Under Saddam Hussein, the perpetrator and his whole family would be put to the shooting squad.

If anything, for the Arab World that is rejoicing over the shoe throwing incident which is the greatest insult for them, they can see that Bush brought change to Iraq in that regard.

Saturday Night Live will miss him too. How many jokes and skits have they played on him?

Bush is cool. He will be greatly missed. We hope he continues to be cool!

President Elect Barack Obama's Inauguration Ceremony Details

We now know who is going to participate in Barack Obama's inauguration ceremony. Dr. Rick Warren, pastor of the influential Saddleback Church, will be one of the select participants. He is the author of the "Purpose-driven Life," a bestseller which has placed him in the conscience of most people, Christians and non-christians alike. World-known "queen of soul," Aretha Franklin will sing at the swearing in ceremony too.

Yale University African-American Poet, Elizabeth Alexander, will also read an inaugural poem, just like Maya Angelou did for Bill Clinton.

The question that many are asking is whether Rev. Rick Warren is poised to replace Rev. Billy Graham who is getting old and sickly. Each president chooses his own minister for faith matters. Rev. Wright caused too much trouble. I imagined he feels sorry for missing such a great opportunity. He could have been up there too!

"In honoring the civil rights movement, Mr. Obama has asked the Rev. Dr. Joseph E. Lowery, dean of the civil rights movement and co-founder with the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, to deliver the benediction."

Bush Iraqi Shoe Thrower Video; YouTube Bush Dodged Flying Shoes in the Arab World

What is the meaning of shoe throwing in the Arab world?

Shoe throwing is a sign of insult. The shoe throwing act that is the hottest news all over the world is a sign of insult that most Arabs understand. Whereas for us, the West, it is an assault against the Leader of the Free world.

The iraqi journalist who threw the shoes at Bush immediately became a hero. By doing so, he put Bush in the same category as late leader, Saddam Hussein whose statue was dragged in the street as a dog.

It is a sign of displeasure with what is going on in Iraq.

Without Sex Promise, People Are Going Back to Churches all over America: The New York Times Publishes on Church Growth and Palin's Wasila Church Burn

In hard economic times, christians as well as non-christians are going back to churches all over America. They need God's help and miracles in these harsh times. God is the same in good and bad times. We, Christians, need to pray more all the times.

In an article published by the New Times on Dec. 14, the writer shows churches are growing but are also facing with economic crises they have never seen before. Less and less people are giving. They require help instead. Many churches have huge loans to pay. When the collection plates return empty, it is time to consider and start living the crisis day after day.

In another development, an arsonist set on fire the Wasila church attended by Sarah Palin. She quickly visited the church to present her apology as the fire may be linked to her political stint. Everyone hopes that this criminal can be caught.

Hmong Taste Testers Pick Whopper over Big Mac. Is That So?

Burger King dropped the burger bomb in Romania, remote thailand village and other virgin territories. Is it a good thing? This campaign is not to combat poverty. It is to make money.

Why go all the way to Thailand when good hmong actors can be found locally? Burger King could find hmong taste testers in Fresno, CA and the Twin Cities. Burger King could even find some Hmong actors, real, ordinary people in Wisconsin, North Carolinas and elsewhere.

It is time to recognize the contributions of Hmong people to this country. You can find many of them in various sectors of the population. Hmong professionals such as doctors, teachers, social workers, artists, and government officials could also participate in the taste testing campaign. They could still give valid opinions on the burger. Why go to a place that is not familiar with the burger war? These people eat good, organic foods. Let's not destroy their taste buds with burgers from America. Hmong in the remote village of Thailand want freedom as well as foods. How many of them are left behind? They need to be reunited with their family members here in the States.

Now Burger King may want to do a video to show their efforts and plight in the remote village of Thailand where these Hmong do not have any rights.

OK, get the message, Burger King?
