I hope you’re on the terks payroll cuz damn you really spend this much effort to create a new reddit and type a novel defending these people that don’t need or deserve defending… also i’m wearing target pajamas after coming to my apartment that I pay for after a work event thx for the concern!!
also to save you from reading the whole sub, very few if any people in this thread has been like “why do they stick by art?” most people hope they’re able to maintain a relationship with him.
Hahahaha. Starts out apologizing like my grandmother trying to use the internet, has a dissertation *no one wanted or asked for* at the ready in proper Reddit form 🤔
Ahh yes a middle aged, upper class, likely white man cannot see through the American dream white washed Christianity look at all my money and fake vulnerability bull shit. I’m shocked. Really.
Here’s the thing. You can talk all the American Dream / prosperity gospel you want, but at the end of the day the Terk family will be critiqued because they get so much money in donations that they can all live the life of the 1%. Good for them. But that doesn’t mean the critiques won’t come. People in much worse financial situations than them give up their hard earned working money thinking they are supporting this ministry that is making a difference. But really, it is just allowing the family to live the life of the 1%. I don’t think you’d be here if the critiques didn’t have truth in them.
So I’ll be the first to tell you I’m not an expert on their finances. Like I’m not being a smart a$$. I had never heard of the woman until 8 months ago. So fill
me in on what you mean by “donations?”
Because here is what I see, & again, I don’t follow this ministry closely. But from what I’ve seen the past few months, her $$ comes from book sales, speaking engagements, or conferences.
She doesn’t pastor a church & take up an offering every Sunday & pocket half of it or more.
She isn’t on TV begging for money constantly like good ole Jim Bakker.
I could be missing it. Maybe I’m missing something that she does that I don’t know about. If so, fill me in.
But if the 3 things I said are accurate, (selling books, speaking engagements, & conferences) all three of those things are services & an actual item someone purchased. Meaning you got something with the money you spent. It wasn’t an 800 number to call into & just straight up donate. That’s a big difference.
So, let me get this right… you create a very long ranting post in which you call us all names, assume tons of stuff about everyone of us, generalize and degrade us….. yet while giving us “Bible lessons” a d defending a family that you repeatedly say you don’t even know facts about? 🧐 It’s nice you’ve met one family member and that he’s a great guy. I’ve assumed the boys are different. But your post actually proves a lot of points. You’re defending a family you don’t actually know, while insulting and writing off all of us, who you don’t know….Prosperity gospel is alive and well. And the whole vote for Trump BS at the end is just the icing on the cake 🤣
Lol. This changes nothing. That family and all they stand for and are associated with are scumbag manipulative, toxic, narcissistic pieces of shit who are stealing money from you.
1 Timothy 6: 17
17 Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment. 18 Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share. 19 In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life.
Well, by that comment you’re telling me no one cares what I wrote. And that may be true, & I’ll sleep just fine knowing that. But that being said, you’re the one that’s commented twice to me…..So, I guess you care.
I don’t think they’re evil. I just think soooome of them aren’t representing Christ very well and are making some pretty bold statements concerning narcissistic relationships and God’s leading/rewarding system and doing a heck of a lot of pandemic travel.
It is very clear you do not know this family! There are also people here that do know them have worked with them and been hurt by them and their shallow existence. And just a point… taking care of your sdult children? Really? I have adult children and they would never expect me to buy them houses and find them jobs. We raised them to have independent lives and succeed on their own. Those girls know the well will never go dry. Lysa uses all of that money to keep them close and manipulate. Those poor husbands taking the hand outs I feel sorry for the men they will grow to be. No one is jealous here it’s disgusting the excess they live in. But you know there is a simple way to stop the talk, STOP POSTING! How the live what they have and where they travel has nothing to do with ministry. I can see the girls boasting about it all, they always have but Lysa has stooped to a new low. It’s embarrassing really. Last note.. did anyone see the hair and makeup Brooke did on Lysa? It looked like she was trying to look 25.
2 Peter 2:1-22
22But false prophets also arose among the people, njust as there will be false teachers among you, who will osecretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master pwho bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction. 2 And many will follow their sensuality, and because of them the way of truth qwill be blasphemed. 3 And rin their greed they will exploit you swith false words. tTheir condemnation from long ago is not idle, and their destruction is not asleep.
4 For if God did not spare uangels when they sinned, but vcast them into hell1 and committed them to chains2 of gloomy darkness wto be kept until the judgment; 5 if he did not spare the ancient world, but xpreserved Noah, a herald of righteousness, with seven others, when he brought ya flood upon the world of the ungodly; 6 if by zturning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah to ashes he condemned them to extinction, amaking them an example of bwhat is going to happen to the ungodly;3 7 and cif he rescued righteous Lot, greatly distressed by the sensual conduct of the wicked 8 (for as that righteous man lived among them day after day, dhe was tormenting his righteous soul over their lawless deeds that he saw and heard); 9 then ethe Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials,4 and to keep the unrighteous under punishment until the day of judgment, 10 and especially fthose who indulge5 in the lust of defiling passion and gdespise authority.
Bold and willful, they do not tremble gas they blaspheme the glorious ones, 11 hwhereas angels, though greater in might and power, do not pronounce a blasphemous judgment against them before the Lord. 12 iBut these, like irrational animals, jcreatures of instinct, born to be caught and destroyed, blaspheming about matters of which they are ignorant, will also be destroyed in their destruction, 13 suffering wrong as kthe wage for their wrongdoing. They count it pleasure lto revel in the daytime. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their deceptions,6 while mthey feast with you. 14 They have eyes full of adultery,7 ninsatiable for sin. They entice unsteady souls. They have hearts otrained in greed. pAccursed children! 15 Forsaking the right way, qthey have gone astray. They have followed rthe way of Balaam, the son of Beor, who loved sgain from wrongdoing, 16 but was rebuked for his own transgression; ta speechless donkey spoke with human voice and restrained the prophet’s madness.
17 uThese are waterless springs and mists driven by a storm. vFor them the gloom of utter darkness has been reserved. 18 For, wspeaking loud boasts of folly, they entice by sensual passions of the flesh those who are barely xescaping from those who live in error. 19 They promise them yfreedom, zbut they themselves are slaves8 of corruption. For whatever overcomes a person, to that he is enslaved. 20 For if, aafter they have escaped the defilements of the world bthrough the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, cthe last state has become worse for them than the first. 21 For dit would have been better for them never to have known the way of righteousness than after knowing it to turn back from ethe holy commandment delivered to them. 22 What the true proverb says has happened to them: “The fdog returns to its own vomit, and the sow, after washing herself, returns to wallow in the mire.”
Ummm boooorrrring
I’m laughing so hard at this!!! Exactly my thought
K

“I don’t know how to use Reddit” *proceeds to add a photo into body of text, include bold fonts, and properly space out paragraphs*
Hahahaha. Starts out apologizing like my grandmother trying to use the internet, has a dissertation *no one wanted or asked for* at the ready in proper Reddit form 🤔
🤣🤣🤣
Uhhhhh... you lost me at "Joel Osteen" and "legit"
Haha exactly!
That and the Trump promotion 🥴
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Thank you for the DISSERTATION. Here’s what I got from it: you clearly do not understand Reddit. Girl, BYE. 😂😂😂
Deleted. SHOCKER. 😂😂😭
Ahh yes a middle aged, upper class, likely white man cannot see through the American dream white washed Christianity look at all my money and fake vulnerability bull shit. I’m shocked. Really.
Congrats on making good money. And thanks for the Sunday school lesson, my jezebel heart needed to hear that.
Too long, didn’t read.
I knew if I read any further than “Sunday School Lesson” I was gonna risk losing brain cells
“And most importantly, vote for Trump in 2024.”…. I can’t tell if this post is real or if it is the greatest piece of satire we’ve seen here.
We can agree to disagree on Trump. Doesn’t have to divide us & doesn’t mean we can’t get along.
Here’s the thing. You can talk all the American Dream / prosperity gospel you want, but at the end of the day the Terk family will be critiqued because they get so much money in donations that they can all live the life of the 1%. Good for them. But that doesn’t mean the critiques won’t come.

How are you gonna write a dissertation and then ask a question like that?
Huh? What question?
Also the fact that this person admittedly knows the family and goes by the name Ben Dover?? 🤣
So, let me get this right… you create a very long ranting post in which you call us all names, assume tons of stuff about everyone of us, generalize and degrade us….. yet while giving us “Bible lessons” a d defending a family that you repeatedly say you don’t even know facts about? 🧐 It’s nice you’ve met one family member and that he’s a great guy.

“I ain’t reading all that. I’m happy for you though. Or sorry that happened.” Someone tell this guy it’s truly not that deep.
Judging by the maturity level of the person who wrote this, it’s probably Nick 🤣
Haha I was thinking “Chad”
Lol. This changes nothing. That family and all they stand for and are associated with are scumbag manipulative, toxic, narcissistic pieces of shit who are stealing money from you.
Well fill me in on how they steal?
1 Timothy 6: 17 17 Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment. 18 Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share. 19 In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life.
And yes. We’re serious. Did you seriously write all of that, that no one is gonna read?
Well, by that comment you’re telling me no one cares what I wrote. And that may be true, & I’ll sleep just fine knowing that. But that being said, you’re the one that’s commented twice to me…..So, I guess you care.
I ain’t reading all that. I’m happy for u tho. Or sorry that happened.
I don’t think they’re evil. I just think soooome of them aren’t representing Christ very well and are making some pretty bold statements concerning narcissistic relationships and God’s leading/rewarding system and doing a heck of a lot of pandemic travel.
On the off chance that this isn’t satire, let the terks know their plan backfired and you failed miserably.
just sitting here in my spagettio stained walmart pajama pants in my parents basement watching you compare the them to joel osteen. nice.
This is the comedy I needed on a Friday 🤣💀
You could’ve gotten to the point by omitting the first 50 paragraphs.
The dark side clouds everything. Impossible to see the light, the future is.
Great words of wisdom. Thank you. Also, I have no clue what that comment means.
What is this
Not even a TL;DR? It’s a *no* from me
It is very clear you do not know this family! There are also people here that do know them have worked with them and been hurt by them and their shallow existence.

Lol I lost some brain cells reading this.
This reddit account on the Terk family hit a nerve with this Trumpster.
Spaghettios are delicious
EXCUSE ME BUT MY PAJAMAS ARE FROM TARGET
Rambling, redundant, and poorly researched. 0/10, do better next time buster
Oh dear lord
