Hang all the flags you want, blast the national anthem on repeat, but if the gates are open and there’s no one at the checkpoint, it’s not your country […]

Jakes to Carl Lentz. But beneath his polished exterior and motivational speeches lies a deeper issue—just like these others, Furtick is a false teacher, a prosperity charlatan whose primary goal […]
