I saw an updated version (2017) through a twitter link, but I can’t find it now.Best I remember some of the top ten was as follows (not sure of all, but am sure of top two and their order because I was surprised):1) Praise Cathedral, SC2) Charlotte Central, WNC3) North Cleveland, TN4) Mt. Paran, NGA5) City Life, FL6) Fort Mill, SC
Based upon the latest available reporting (Some states don’t give access to their stats, some churches haven’t reported, some stats are several months old) here are the top churches based upon tithes:Praise Cathedral, Jerry D Madden – 280,020Tampa – City Life – Tony Stewart – 259,271Charlotte – Central, Loran Livingston – 249,597 Cooper City – Kevin Harris – 215,695Columbus, The Potter’s House, Tim Oldfield 185,553.45Hamilton, Princeton Pike, Barry A. Clardy 160,497.99Plant City – Jeff Robinson – 159,161Winchester – Darrell Waller – 129,511Fort Mill, Mark C Leonhardt – 146,963 Cartersville – Church at Liberty Square, Jacob King – 144206Mount Paran – David Cooper – 172261 Athens – Cornerstone, Scott Sheppard 131290.7 Wilson-Farmington Heights, LaVon Phillips – 119,191The Torch – Mike Franklin – 119158Deland, The Sanctuary – Mark Shrade – 110532Mobile – Oak Park – David Smith – 108,206Birmingham – The Healing Place – Randy Smith – 107,069Anderson-High Praises, Chris Sustar 106,994Conway, Stuart Allen Jacobs – 105,258
You know the deal. People want to keep their money local. The member gets to choose. What if people are reading the New Testament and studying church history?
