New pastors have been appointed to run Brisbane's Destiny
Church after their predecessor and more than half the
congregation walked out of last Sunday's service over several
issues, including concerns the church was becoming a
money-making cult.
New revelations have emerged of the inner workings of Destiny
Church, including claims of eftpos terminals being used to
take collections, men-only church meetings and numerous
tithing nightmares.
Brian Tamaki is given up to $500,000 every year in donations
from Destiny Church members on top of his six-figure salary,
according to a former employee.
Destiny Church supporters parted with tens of thousands of
dollars for the privilege of watching 700 worshippers swear
an oath of allegiance to leader Bishop Brian Tamaki.
