like trump, on her third marriage (via divorce). The third marriage is unusual for the charismatic crowd. Usually, they aren't allowed to be pastors if the divorce snd remarry.

doesn't have a sterling reputation (for the church). I've heard from too many SB friends about ministers' porn stashes, divorcing to marry a teen year old from the youth group, suicide, affairs with congregation members, divorces due to affairs with men and boys. I think there's a higher percentage of creepiness in that field, probably stemming from shame.
