Saying mass in the Crystal Cathedral would be ironic. Schuller rightly claims to have started the Church Growth Movement, so perfectly aped by WELS, Missouri, ELCA, and even the Church of Rome.
Phoenix has a St. Timothy Community Church - Catholic! They used to be proud to say they belonged to the pope. Now they want to sneak people into the Kingdom of God, just like WELS and The CORE.
Schuller's masonry evangelism has been adopted by Cornerstone, a joint WELS-LCMS business started by CGM leader St. Ron Roth. Notice how well it worked for Schuller. The mortgage on his gigantic church drove the ministry into bankruptcy. Schuller made sure his relatives and buddies were paid like royalty.
Mark Jeske is really the Synod President of WELS. The other Mark - what's his name - is just a figurehead who carries out the orders of Jeske's Church and Change team. Therefore, WELS members are still paying staff members ludicrous amounts of money to advance Jeske's agenda.
