Lifestyles of the Rich and Evangelical
Heath and Michelle have split. Shaq and Shaunie are divorcing. And buzz is popping for both celebri-couples. Yet, the broken hearts igniting the most sizzle in Search aren't stars of the screen or the court, but those of the pulpit.
Paula and Randy White, founders of Without Walls International Church in Tampa, Florida, are untying the knot. They announced the dissolution of their 18-year marriage on August 23—and kicked up a buzz storm. Led primarily by southern states, searches for "randy and paula white," "paula white ministries," and "randy and paula white divorce" leapt. Over the past week, "paula white divorce" topped all "divorce" searches, leaving the marital failings of other big names, like Paula Zahn and Kobe Bryant, in the dust.
Pastor Paula's buzz-touch doesn't stop there. The blonde preacher had established a ministry partnership with Bishop Rick Hawkins and the Family Praise Center in San Antonio, Texas. We don't know if there's anything more to the relationship, but their flocks have flown to the Web to find out. Both "rick hawkins" and "bishop rick hawkins divorce" surged recently.
Meanwhile, evangelist Juanita Bynum's violent encounter with estranged hubby Bishop Thomas Weeks continues to draw buzz online. Over the past week, searches for "juanita bynum assault pictures" rose 3,186%. Queries like "juanita bynum weeks divorce," "juanita bynum news," and "juanita bynum beaten" have also stayed strong. We'll rest easier when the bishops leave the buzz to the pros—and let the celebs back in on the game.

The JUDGE is on HIS way!
LIVING A LIFE THAT MATTERS
Every knee and tounge, get ready.
Ready or not, someday it will all come to an end. There will be no more sunrise, no more minutes, hours or days.
All things you collect, whether treasured or forgotten, will pass to someone else. Your wealth, fame and temporal power will shrivel to irrelevance. It will not matter what you owned or what you owed.
Your grudges, resentments, frustrations and jelousies will finally disapear. So, too, your hopes, ambitions, plans and to do list expire. thwe wins and loses that once seemed so important will fade away.
At the end it wont matter where you came from, or on what side of the tracks you lived. It wont matter whether you were beautiful or brilliant. Even your gender and skin color will be irrelevant...
