    Didn’t know the author, apparently she’s your average televangelist type.

    Wikipedia:

    Meyer, who owns several homes and travels in a private jet, has been criticized for living an excessive lifestyle. She does not defend her spending habits, saying “there’s no need for us to apologize for being blessed.” Meyer commented, “You can be a businessman here in St. Louis, and people think the more you have, the more wonderful it is … but if you’re a preacher, then all of a sudden it becomes a problem.”
