    @Maxiley, this guy should start with the hood especially in Chicago. Heal those young gangsters' souls, plus heal those who have been paralyzed by violence both physically and spiritually. Truth be told, those are his people and that is where he should start from. Aache ujinga.

    Why! Religion making humans slaves and stupid. Why pay 75k to have dinner with a foreign visitor? I will tell you what to do with 75k; Go pay tuition for a kid from a poor family and your God (whatever you worship) will bless your soul.
    Its reminds me of morons who worship the big goat Awuor, sweeping streets for him etc. Ghee Africa! Maybe your God has gone shopping

  8. formerlyguest2Aug 15, 2019

    The fact that the pastor like himself would condone to have such an extravagant dinner in such a poor country is so freaking telling but those who want to be duped that he is your arbitrator to God, go pay !

    Stupid Kenyans is this the messiah that if I seat by the fireside with him I will be healed.You give these so called men of god permission to misbehave .75000K in a country where regular civil servants take home a measly 50000K or less a month.Pastors flying around in private jets taking from the “flock” Go to you tube watch his sermons for free or get his podcasts.

    " A man of God is going to rob people in broad daylight"!!! Why?
    Kenyan's, wake up!!
    This man, TD Jake as of 2018 was worthy $147 million U S dollars. (Ksh. 14.7 billion) all of it collected from his prosperity gospel saga- Donation from people thirsty for the word of God mostly the poor. If anything, he should come to give, not to take.
    T.D Jake's, is coming at the invitation of Kenya Commercial bank. He is not from Kenya, he is not an economist,he will collect millions of shillings,he will, then head back home to add to his millions, leaving our innocent and ignorant people worse off.
    Entrepreneur leadership summit?
    Economic progress of the continent?
    Why doesn't this entrepreneur genius, help his poor African American brothers and sisters who are stuck in poverty in all the ghettos of America.
    Kenyan's, wake up, if it needs to be done, you are smart enough to do it well all by yourselves.!!!

    Kenyans are so stupid for real ndio shida itakaa na nyinyi mpaka kukufa

  14. Nani?Aug 16, 2019

    I despise prosperity gospel with a passion. That said, the larger portion of TD Jakes' net worth is from his speaking tours, media, books and being on the board of a few corporations, AT&T being one of them(I think) . He has used is notoriety on the pulpit to springboard himself to several income generating avenues away from the church. Additionally, Kenyans are willing to pay big bucks to be seen in “foreign “ events. Chris Brown sold out an event in Mombasa where some tickets were going for 50,000. You couldn’t pay me to go watch Chris Brown!

  15. formerlyguest2Aug 16, 2019

    Chris Brown who? .................. even Janet Jackson , I can youtube her videos for free .

  16. Kenya.Aug 16, 2019

    You must be kidding they are selling prosperity gospel for 75K.

  17. AnosAug 16, 2019

    I like all the comments here! Nothing more to add.

  18. MaxileyAug 16, 2019

    @Anos.I will add one for you. Can you imagime if this pastor looked like "Jesus"and performed some "miracles".And declared,"sell all your worldly wealth"for the kingdom of God is coming in 2023 when the world ends?.Kenyans wont go to work or school.

  19. AnosAug 16, 2019

    True. But miracles are hard to perform! imagine turning water into wine. Can he do that? By the way that is my favorite miracle. The day anyone does it, I will fall on my knees, drop everything and follow them to wherever they go.

    The thing is if all you can do is resurrect Lazurus and the daughter of Jairus and that's it; and this are stories not witnessed but are passed down orally from one person to another in a corner of middle east that has no oil, by goat herders...

    The most spiritually bankrupt people are the ones with money...TD...Go make a killing, make your money.

  22. Christopher A HarperNov 19, 2019

    I keep forgetting, how much did Jesus charge the multitude for the fish and bread? Organized religion...JACKPOT!

    Matthew 7:21-23

    21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. 22 Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ 23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’
