Possibly... Some Of The Best Paragraphs On The InterTubes... Evah...



Rory Alec, the co-founder, with his wife Wendy, and CEO of GodTV has stepped down from his position citing a personal “moral failure” in his marriage.


And...

The statement from GodTV was issued on Thursday with Rory Alec’s name already removed from the organization’s website.

According to Charisma News, Wendy Alec will be joined by GodTV personality Benny Hinn.

Hinn went through a divorce from his wife of thirty years in 2010 following rumors that he was having an affair with fellow evangelist Paula White who was separated from her evangelist husband, Randy White in the wake of an IRS investigation into financial improprieties at their church. Hinn’s church was also scrutinized as part of the investigation that looked at five evangelical organizations

Hinn remarried his wife in 2013, blaming her surprise divorce filing on her addiction to prescription drugs and on his lack of attention to her and their children as he fulfilled his ministerial duties.

GodTV’s focus is on the youthful Christian demographic, with an an emphasis on “universal sinfulness and guilt of fallen man, making him subject to God’s wrath and condemnation,” according to their mission statement.
