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.

A New Chapter for Crystal Cathedral

October 18, 2010

Despite the current and ongoing economic climate, the most recent financial reports for the Crystal Cathedral Ministries indicate the best cash flow the Ministry has experienced in 10 years. The Ministry is continuing to reach and change lives in the community, across America and around the world with its unique weekly message of hope.

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.

I am asking if anyone has heard of a tie between social justice and the cathedral.

I do not know either way, just wondering if anyone has heard anything on the subject.
