 * Keep--sources #3, #4, and #5 are independent, reliable, and enough in depth to count for notability. However, the video on one of them doesn't work because it is archived, making it hard to assess. I found two other independent, in-depth enough sources here and here.--Epiphyllumlover (talk) 01:29, 25 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep - An author of 35 books is likely to be notable. However I would be happier if his church were notable enough to have an article.  Peterkingiron (talk) 14:55, 25 May 2019 (UTC)

 * Keep as he does seem to pass WP:NAUTHOR as significant in his field for example worldcat shows 2400 library holdings of his works which is a strong indicator of notability suggesting they would be widely reviewed Atlantic306 (talk) 20:13, 25 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep- it looks passes WP:NAUTHOR--MA Javadi (talk) 19:41, 26 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep lots of coverage comes up in news archive searches - going back decades. Note that he is foounder and pastor of a large, prominent Church of the Apostles (Atlanta).E.M.Gregory (talk) 12:52, 27 May 2019 (UTC)


 * Keep references 4 and 5 is considering as reliable sources.Fatzaof (talk) 13:42, 27 May 2019 (UTC)
