Anyone remember the long debate over whether the preacher there was a heretic or not? I just saw on foxnews.com that Robert H. Schuler had removed his son from preaching there for "different" views/direction. Anyone else find that interesting?

Yeah, normally I don't give anything on TV preachers any read time, but I read it because of the fun here. I didn't see anything about why junior got the ax.

This seems to explain it pretty well:

"I was called to start a mission, not a church," Schuller told his audience Sunday. "There is a difference. . . . You don't try to preach . . . what is sin and what isn't sin. A mission is a place where you ask nonbelievers to come and find faith and hope and feel love. We're a mission first, a church second."
Seems the son wanted to preach the scripture more than the father wanted him to and in doing so would be calling people sinners ... interesting ...

Neither of them are meaty. The old man is a motivational speaker with watered down theology. So, he is mad that his son is preaching less watered down theology? Amazing.
