GI Bill Seminary: Get Educated and Tithes!
How Georgia’s ‘House of Prayer’ turned veterans’ GI Bill benefits into holy tithes, fake seminaries, and granite countertops..
Federal prosecutors just indicted leaders of the Georgia-based “House of Prayer” churches. Their holy hustle? Defrauding veterans out of $23.5 million in GI Bill benefits by running fake seminaries that were basically Zoom calls in holy bathrobes.
Yes, they targeted veterans—the people who signed up to take bullets—and handed them degrees that weren’t worth the paper they were printed on. Unless, of course, you needed paper to light Pastor Chad’s cigar.

The only exams were attendance sheets. Imagine serving your country, surviving war, and then getting academically waterboarded by a guy teaching “Christology” from a Panera Wi-Fi connection.

And while veterans were squinting at frozen Zoom screens, the pastors were out here living like MTV Cribs: The Apocalypse Edition.
Because nothing says “humble servant of God” like a $1.2 million mansion and a driveway full of cars that Jesus forgot to mention in the Sermon on the Mount.
The Punchline
This wasn’t education. It was a divine Ponzi scheme with hymnals.
The House of Prayer turned the GI Bill into the “Give It All” Bill.
Virgin Monk Boy’s Final Word
If you’re keeping score at home:
Veterans risk their lives → get fake diplomas.
Pastors risk indictments → get granite countertops.
Taxpayers risk aneurysms → get to watch this circus unfold in court.
The only real theology here? Thou shalt not get caught… until the FBI shows up.

Wow. This group got education, church and government in one con. The individual person is the one hurt the most.
All the money that will never be recovered. Imagine what our world would look like if this much thought and energy was put toward actual good works. A lot of times the "easy money" concept is just as much work and organization as a legit organization. But the perpetrators would rather get their fix from hurting people.
If I hadn’t lived here for the past 40 years, i would call you a liar & say it wasn’t true. That shit doesn’t happen. Can’t be true.
Since i have lived here for the past 40 years, if you said it wasn’t true & I was a liar, I’d introduce you to Marjorie Taylor Greene to give you an ass-whupping & prove you were wrong even though she knew it was true.
Kidding. I wouldn’t introduce anybody to her. Fortunately i don’t know her so i can’t.
That’s just so repulsive & shameless.
