As a cynic, it would genuinely change my view in a significant way if you could highlight examples of some megachurches whose owners don't seem to be psychopaths out to exploit as man vulnerable people with religion as possible.


While I’m not personally familiar with them, Redeemer Presbyterian Church[1] in New York City (previously pastored by Tim Keller[2]) comes to mind.

Doing a quick google on Liquid church, which TFA is about....

They paid off $13m of people's medical debt[1]

They volunteer in the community[2]

They have people digging wells in Honduras[3]

They send a million meals to the poor countries[4][5]

They seem genuine enough to me
