This article was proposed for deletion but the article creator objected on the talk page. Essentially this article fails WP:BIO because it's about a non-notable pastor. The argument made for keeping this article was that he is a "recognized author" and he is a major leader in the House of Prayer movement. That illustrates the problem with this article; writing a book doesn't make you notable unless the book is notable, and being notable within a certain group of people (IHOP) isn't enough if you are not notable at large. All sources in this article are primary sources. No notability outside of his "flock". -- Atamachat 16:14, 19 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
