He was one of the good guys.
I'm not sure that this is correct. His church didn't join the PCA until 1978 or so.
Yes, indeed he did.
Rest in Peace, Dr. Kennedy.
He also served on the national board of the Coalition for Religious Freedom, underwritten by Rev. Sun Myung Moon’s Unification Church.

Anyone know if this is true. I have enjoyed his programs for many years.
He will be sorely missed.
Better to prove your own slander than have others try it for you.
Slander?? It is from the article, I asked if it was true?
..Suffice to say a Godly man is with his Heavenly Father ....praising God eternally.
Coral Ridge is a beautiful church but not ostentatious....the steeple is lovely but not as tall as the paper made it seem.
The pipe organ is beautiful.
I thank God for D.James Kennedy....his vision...his love for the unborn.
Bless you, Dr.Kennedy....Rest in peace.
I have read that elsewhere. He and a lot of other Religious conservatives.
*** Better to prove your own slander than have others try it for you.***
Better still to read the article, rather than make accusations of slander.
I, for one, will miss Dr. Kennedy, but only till I join the Lord and him in paradise.
grew from 45 in the McNab Elementary School auditorium to an estimated 10,000 at what's now a megachurch at 5555 N. Federal Highway -- the fastest-growing church in America from the late 1960s through much of the 1980s.
How many "fastest-growing churches in American" can there be? And if it was the "fastest-growing" church in America for three decades, why are there only 10,000? Other churches formed during that time have more than 10,000. Where did everyone go?
If you trust anything by this rag, you will believe anything
One of God’s days, those who are now
Faithful to Jesus in life’s constant maze
Soon will see light. Then, will they know
All of life’s meaning, one of God’s days.
One of God’s days, beautiful days,
We shall in glory sing his praise.
Fighting’s all done, victories won.
We shall see Jesus one of God’s days.
—Walter & Civilla Martin, 1909
Coalition for Religious Freedom-Wikipedia
A religious right organization founded by Tim LaHaye and Robert Grant to lobby against government regulation of religion. In the 1980s the organization concentrated its efforts on defending the Unification Church.
The Religious Freedom Coalition is run by Murray O'Hares Christian son, William J. Murray. The question is did the reporter even get the right name?
Controversial?
??????
To the unbeliever, anyone labouring for God is controversial. Or a freak.
What a ridiculous obit. On and on about gay trauma. Maybe the author is one. The Rev. Moon reference. You don’t see this when libs die. “Prof. Jackson was a part of the Western Schools Administration, an organization founded by Communist organizers in the 1930s”...
As for the man - he was by far my favorite TV Preacher. I always enjoyed his heartfelt religious sermons, as well as the segments on the culture war.
