A few years after I graduated HS a guy I graduated with and was friends with started going there. I hadn't seen him since a few months after graduating then all of a sudden he would stop by my house.

It was almost like a process he was advice to do in order to "save" people. First time he came, everything was cool then he drops the whole "I have been attending Jimmy Swaggart (or whatever his church is called" Tells me I need to go check out out with him sometime.

Several days later he stopped by, he burned a few CDs for me where I could really hear the message in the music. About a week later he comes over and asked what I thought about the CDs and he would be glad to talk about them with me. That's when I told him I had no interest whatsoever in listening to them. I said I would check them out just to be nice, but I am not going to waste his time.

He seemed taken back, I gave him his CDs and said its nothing personal, I still consider him a friend but I am not talking about that shite with him. Have not seen or heard from him since.

As for as what its like, probably like every other scam artist preacher.

I can’t speak to today, but I had a drug dealer that lived in the dorms after they were converted to “apartments”. He effectively had an entire floor to himself and it was pretty odd even by druggie standards.

I have a weird guilty pleasure of watching Jimmy on whatever channel it comes for 10-15 minutes occasionally. I'm not religious, I'll leave it at that, but there's something hypnotizing about watching these kind of churches and watching the people. I had a little crush on one of the blonde backup singers, Grace I think her name is without looking. I don't know why but televangelists are fascinating to me
