Here’s a few more. The nature of these non-profits makes the salaries even more shocking. Seems like feeding the poor, caring for starving children and printing Bibles is a pretty profitable business in American these days.Richard E. StearnsPresident - World Vision$366,479 :-o Robin G. MahfoodPresident - Food For The Poor$300,197 :cry: Charles F. MacCormackPresident - Save the Children$278,241 :oops: John F. SchultzPresident - Christian Children's Fund$196,154Wesley K.

sermonindex Dec 4, 2005

This is very saddening. Where did you obtain these statistics?

The ones I posted are from - http://www.charitynavigator.org/If you take the time to look there are many good ones, but these are the worst of the worst - it seems like the bigger or more well known they are the more corrupt they are. The sad things is is that these are the ones most sponser children through and give their money to and so much of it goes to line the pockets of the rich.Here's a good one for sponsering childrenBridge Of Hope100% of the money goes to the children and no one who works there takes a salery.K.P. YohannanPresident - GFA/Bridge Of HopeSalery - $0.00:-)

Wow... Thanks Josh, and all.I am paying my bills as I write. Not 15 minutes ago was feeling guilty over a lack of supporting a World Vision sponsorship that fell back under the mountain months ago ...Will rip that up and re-direct it where it can go to help propagate the truths of this life. Thank you very much!There was a pause before this, a consideration, a question... Are these salaries exorbitant? Goodness... It didn't take that much thought, and to think something like this place is freely given here with such a rich and eternal shelf life...K.P. Yohannan ... There is a message on here about how his mother used to squirrel away money and send it off to missions unbeknownst to her family, before her sons came to the faith...Edit: Just the act of tearing that up.. I can look over at this child's picture right now and wonder... Something else was just torn along with it

My links are from forbes.com i believe (url within the title of the organizations)Many people say 'you can't judge these me for taking in this amount of money'.I point them to Jesus, and K.P. Yohannan, who truly continues to bless me with his integrity ..never read a book of his.

I think that it is good to know these stats sometimes but for me i tend to get cynical and judgemental sometimes after reading something like that. but it is very helpful when you are sitting down about to write a check to charity, you know which ones need it the most. K.P. Yohannan wrote an awesome book called "living in the light of eternity" i would suggest this book to everyone at least to skim through. just some thoughts.

:-( The list of salaries (except for The salary for Campas crusade for Christ, 50k??) made me greatly sad at heart. Makes me think of what Ravenhill said about John Wesly in his death on the "Revival" Comp. He died with so little because he gave so much but he left the Methodist church! And they ushered in the great Holiness Revival of the 1800's which spawned the Church in which I'm apart of.At the same time I'm humbled by K.P. Yohannan. :-)

sermonindex Dec 5, 2005

I'm sure K.P. Yohannan get's paid through other ways. Just like everyone else in the list. (i.e. books, serminars, etc..etc)But, that only adds the HORROR to the money Stanley and Robertson receives :-( I'm not saying anything bad of Yohannan(cause i love that guy :-P) , just stating he probly gets a salary some other way.

Hi there...!Wow -- this is truly disturbing! Wasn't it Moody or Spurgeon that stated that if they had $10 when they passed away, then they were a fraud? The funny thing is that I know quite a few ministers that actually work "free of charge." Does anyone happen to know how much money in salary and benefits that the other TBN "superstars" happen to make? I think that would be very interesting. :-)

sermonindex Dec 5, 2005

It would be interesting. But, I think we need to not lose focus. May this cause the intercessor within us to be stirred.
