It's worth telling U that us Black people need to make better choices in life and Y can't the preacher take home 4-5 Gs. He takes not only account for what he does n his body but what he tell the congregation as well. No body questions how much Bill Gates, the Walton family (Wal-Mart), or McDonald's if they preaching the word they are worth every DOLLAR. Preach On.
