Creflo Dollar Police Report (Fayette County)
At his World Changers mega-church, Dollar?preaches a “Prosperity theology” in his Sunday sermons that are broadcast internationally.
The theology, which teaches that God wants to bless the faithful with earthly riches, drew the attention of Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, who targeted six ministers in an investigation in 2011 into the personal use of church-owned airplanes, luxury homes and credit cards by pastors and their families.
All six insisted they comply with tax regulations for religious nonprofits. Dollar was one of four ministers (including Eddie Long) who refused to cooperate with the investigation.
