Canadian Pentecostal revivalist minister Todd Bentley, originally from Canada, had to sever relations with the Assemblies of God Ignited Church in Lakeland, Florida, due to a romantic relationship with a female staffer.
Bentley, who had a hard youth involving drinking, drugs and gang activity, was convicted of sexual assault charges in the early 1990s.
The burly, balding, tatto-covered evangelist and faith healer was known for his high-energy revivals that featured rock music and rock concert-like light shows to add luster to his efforts at healing.
Bentley claimed to have visited Heaven and talked with the Apostle Paul and with an angel called Emma. He was packing them in until revelations of the marital indiscretion that led him to move to Fort Mill, S.C. Chances are, however, he will be back at it soon.
