Steve Floyd Review of Church of the Resurrection

Regarding your response - I clearly remember exactly what Adam said. I sat listening to his every word with my parents by my side. I'm an educated 56 year old man and I heard exactly what he said. His message was crystal clear. I stand by what I heard directly from his mouth. I'll add another concern, my elderly parents have been asked repeatedly for donations over many many yeras to build more and more add-ons to the church. Over the years the church has asked for tens of millions from the congregation and they've felt guilty they couldn't donate more. They gave what they could. Now that they're in their mid 80's their health is failing and they live on a bare minimum fixed income. The church never has reached out to them asking if they need assistance. But the church proudly advertises all the help they offer to communities in surrounding states but they can't take care of one of their own? It's hypocrisy. The faith of this church appears to be wrapped in money. I've seen and heard enough. I'm speaking out because there are needy within the congregation including my parents who worshiped there for decades. Now they listen over the internet because they can't attend in person for health reasons. I don't want another response, I want the church to stop promoting the good they do and actually do some good.
I attended one of Adam's so called wonderful sermons, during which Adam told a story of a visit to a local shopping mall. He stated he saw many young teens all dressed in black and stated he could see in their eyes they had no direction and were lost. I was immediately turned off and nearly stood up to challenge him in front of thousands of his brain dead zombies. I found Adam to be very judgmental. Adam, you can't judge a book by its cover. His comments were not accidental either because I heard several other judgmental comments come from his mouth. He does not represent the true spirit of God in my opinion.
In addition to his judgmental comments, I find it very unappealing that Adam never cancels church service during winter storms. When every other local church cancels service due to dangerous weather, Adam chooses to keep the doors open so he can collect money. Money and growth appear to be more important than the safety of the congregation. When money becomes the foundation of a church, fraud is soon to follow. $81M for what??? Expansion to get more money, right? So the church can donate more, right? Billion of $$$, right? Oh right! And the money goes to Africa, not local? Right! There's thousands of needy starving folks in KC. How about build a huge cafeteria and buy some buses and pick up those needy folks on those winter storm days and bus them into Leawood and feed them by the thousands like Jesus did? Why doesn't the church bring the needy by the thousands every week? Break bread with them, make friends with the less fortunate instead of publish some bs monthly report stating where the money supposively goes. Right, it's Leawood and that wouldn't go over well with Adam's so called congregation.
If I recall, Jesus didnt stand for profit. I believe Adam profits well from his church gig and lives in a beautiful home. I understand he's profited well from being a real estate devolper too. Adam, open your accounting books, serve to lord by donating your salary, bus in the local needy by the thousands weekly and go back to that mall and find those so called lost children and apologize. Aside from that, you've devoloped a Walmart church. Ever hear of Amazon? Guess what happens to >$100M investment once Adsm leaves? Implosion and then the county and city of Leawood tax payers will subsidize this massive eye sore. Leawood is a perfect place for soles like this congregation. Keep donating, more, more, more and don't ever drive to the hood where the real needy reside. Don't you dare bus them in to Leawood. I hope Trump removes the tax exempt status of churches so the country has a 100 year plan and lets see what happens to these Godly folks who tithe.
