He made Christianity very easy and understandable, and the first time people like us heard him preach, we totally fell in love with Christ.
We also love the fact that, the only person he fears is GOD, and so he never twists the scriptures to please anyone or the youths of today. It's either you take the truth or you leave it, LOL.
We also love the fact that whatever thing he says goes viral, and he doesn't give a damn (LOLLLL). Below is a little write about the man of God.
HAPPY 78TH BIRTHDAY DADDY... WE LOVE YOU.
