I wonder if this church supports social justice? It would explain the loss of attendence over the past year, along with the outing of social justice in some churches today.
Anyone know anymore?
The church decided to file for Chapter 11 after some of its creditors sued for payment, according to church officials. "Our ministry will continue as usual," Senior Pastor Sheila Schuller Coleman said. She later said that if anything, the church's recent troubles will give the church's messages more meaning.

this article says attenance has bene down for two years... The Crystal Cathedral also alienated older worshippers with the ill-fated attempt to turn the church over to Schuller's son, Robert A. Schuller Jr. The much-heralded changeover ended in a bitter and very public family spat, with the younger Schuller disappearing from the "Hour of Power" broadcasts and abruptly leaving the church altogether in 2008, less than three years after he assumed his father's mantle.
Last year, while announcing his own weekly TV show, Schuller Jr. said his father had resisted when he tried to introduce other media, such as cell phones and the Internet.
