Years ago, I noticed changes in TBN and stopped watching them. I watched them a lot prior to that and was blessed immensely many times over. I also was not happy when Jack Van Impe was not being aired on TBN too. I recently saw a video in which Paul Crouch Jr. was interviewed and the truth is revealed now. When people do you wrong especially family members the truth always seems to come out and they get exposed doesn't it.
I also viewed a video of Jack explaining what happened behind the scenes with Matt Crouch pushing him off of the air. Dirty deeds get exposed and then God turns it around to bless the one the wrong was done to do you agree. I always thought that Paul Jr. was the better host or co-host because he was down to earth and not flashy in personality too. I guess you could say he did not have a cocky/arrogant type of attitude like his younger brother appeared to have a more aggressive type of personality. I do not recall exactly because it has been several years ago when I noticed the unfair treatment of one son over the other. Did I send a letter to TBN reflecting my thoughts or did I just share my concerns with people around me.
I noticed changes in TBN that I did not like at one point. I actually contacted the business office to see if I could be refunded money, I donated to them. I was told they cannot do that once the money has been donated. I should have pursued it a bit more aggressively to get a refund of hard-earned money I gave to them.
Then I thought it was dirty play when both their parents went to be with the Lord and how Paul Jr. was muscled out of the running of TBN. The way it is currently run now does not appeal to me in the least bit. Pastor Jentzen Franklin sent me an email announcing he was going to be on TBN and would I watch him on TBN. I did not watch him but used to love when he would be interviewed on TBN in the good old days which was not too far ago.
When Paul Jr. was interviewed you could see he had a tender heart towards both parents and honored the foresight they had to do what they did to grow TBN throughout the years. The sacrifices they made as empty & willing vessels to be used of the Lord. I agree with that sentiment because many times I would see Jan have tears of compassion for the lost and dying and hurting people of the world. I truly was blessed many times over years ago when I stumbled upon TBN on tv. A time in my life when I was growing immensely in the word of God and the things of God too. I remember when Pastor Rod Parsley brought along with him my pastor at the time and next thing, I knew there was Pastor Kayatin for a brief few minutes preaching/sharing on TBN. Imagine that. I experienced beautiful worship times while watching TBN also. I support Paul & Brenda Crouch in what they are walking through now in their lives while the truth is coming forth. Who would not want to see their dying parent in the hospital but blocked when going to see them because the secret code was not given to them to enter the patients room without getting arrested for doing so. All because the secret code to allow you to get in to visit was withheld from you. Who does such cruel things to you. Apparently, things like this go on.
I can relate to this family dynamics stuff a little bit because on a much smaller scale I experienced it with my father. Relatives telling some sort of lies to him to get him to change his last will and testament to include the connivers as the main benefactors of his estate. I forgave all the now deceased characters in that story a long time ago. You can always choose to forgive but for some reason the story stays with you because it now becomes a part of your living testimony. Why do I say that? One day when all that was stollen from my family is replaced by God it will be a greater testimony to God and not me. Can you imagine this scenario. Sitting around a large in size oval shaped conference table with attorneys there representing all of the benefactors (including religious organizations/churches/nuns/Catholic Jesuit high school) and I am being deposed by them as to the reasoning of contesting my fathers will. This was a Holy Ghost moment as I remember it ever so clearly. One attorney was trying to say my father thought the way he did when changing his will to re-position me in the at the lower portion of the will when distributing my father's estate this crazy thought/notion. He said to me that happened because I was born again and no longer a practicing Catholic. Well guess what, I became born again as a practicing Catholic and that theory just went out the window when I responded is such a simple manner I became born again while I was still Catholic. It amazes me to this very day how Holy Spirit refuted that nonsense using an open/empty vessel to speak forth divine wisdom response. I remember it that day as thinking what a stupid thing for that attorney to say and base his theory on. My attorney sat right next to me the entire time. Would you possibly be intimidated by this room full of attorneys asking me questions, I was not. I stopped and thought before answering each question as Holy Spirit hand fed me the answers, Imagine that.
