This was bomb
At first, the Instagram page seemed like a way to blast pastors wearing Yeezys and Gucci. Instead, it started a conversation about faith, materialism and bringing millennials to church. In a rare thing for social media, people even changed their minds.https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/17/nyregion/preachers-sneakers-instagram-account.html …

This is a touchy subject indeed. My father was a pastor. He raise a family of 6 on the most modest income. We were one of the families that received food baskets in the winter. My father believed that God would bless his family one day. Long story short, God blessed him.

Church attendance has and continues to fall drastically (Pew). A large portion of divinity school graduates have a difficult time finding a pastorate that can sustain them. (PBS, The Call). These subjects seem more representative of celebrity culture than the church, broadly

As a preacher’s kid, your story confirms that eliminating churches’ automatic tax exemption to fund charity healthcare is right around the corner. :-) http://DrBrianDixon.com

agree if you're bleeding other people dry and wearing designer clothes that's one thing, if it's out of your annual salary it's your money

As a millennial and a Christian, I’m very aware that one cannot worship God and money. This has always looked like money worship to me, whether it’s $2000 sneakers, $10,000 suits, or $80,000 cars. I don’t expect pastors to be broke and struggling. I do expect different priorities

Fair comment.
