"This is one of the miracles of love: It gives a power of seeing through its own enchantments and yet not being disenchanted." -CS Lewis US Sheepherding Experiment A few years back, I attended a medium sized SBC church with a very conservative approach to Scriptural interpretation. In other words, the teaching in this church didn’t begin to approach anything that remotely resembled the health and wealth gospel. As time went on, I was stunned that a number of people in this church followed such charlatans as Benny Hinn. When I would ask them why, I was flummoxed when they said they believed that Hinn and others like him actually heal people. These folks donated money to his enterprise (I refuse to call it a ministry) and would attend his gatherings. And they also attended BSF, led Bible studies and were involved in leadership in the church.
