On Smiles and Kicks

So, as you may or may not know, this week (August 5th to 11th) is National Smile Week. To assist you in smiling, here is a cute penguin...


It is SOOO Cute!!!

And if you don't want to smile, I'll kick you in the face. With a boot. I'd assume that to be the response of Todd Bentley at least.... Mr. Bentley has gained a bit of fame from his work in the Lakeland Revival. He is best known for his faith-healing work with a "physical" bent. For instance, when a member of his congregation claimed to have colon cancer, Mr. Bentley shared the "Power of God"with a swift knee to the man's gut. And then the man fell to the floor....probably because he had been kneed in the stomach. In another case, he pushed a man so hard that the man lost a tooth. In yet another case, he "assisted" a woman....
“The Holy Spirit spoke to me, the gift of faith came on me, and said, ‘Kick her in the face with your biker boot.’ I inched closer and I went bam!”
(Because you're not speaking about him, I wouldnt have this set apart as a quote)He then adds, “Just as my boot made contact with her nose, she fell under the power of God.”
Unsurprisingly, none of his "miracles" have been verified. What has been verified is his sexual assault of a 7 year old during his teenage years.


He seems like such a pious man.... except for all the rules he unapologetically breaks....



As always, if you have anything to add to the conversation, just comment below!
