Chances of crime go way up north of Chestnut. It’s not just people who leave their doors unlocked either. My truck was recently broken into in my well lit driveway with the door locked. They didn’t even try the handle. Nothing was taken because I don’t leave anything in my truck after it being broken into twice before… There’s signs all over town saying beware of smash and grab theft for a reason. I also manage a retail store and I can tell you that retail theft is super high here compared to other areas I have lived and worked.

If they could prove that it happened they would. Plain and simple. It is the ultimate marketing strategy for their church. Imagine how many new members they would have willing to donate thousands of dollars a year to their church if they could prove a miracle like this. To OPs point though, they don’t have to prove anything because there are desperate people out there, people whose kids have terminal diseases or incurable diseases themselves, who are willing to throw money at the church because they need a miracle. All of this media attention and attention from the community is costing them nothing so every time a believer now chooses James River over a doctor they make pure profit.

It wouldn’t surprise me if you’re right. It costs James River nothing for this attention so if even one person joins their church it’s pure profit.

Reply to Places for Guy’s Haircuts by JustASillyGooseXD
If you want a good men’s haircut without paying $40-$50 at a luxury place like Hudson Hawk go the the Brentwood Barbershop. The guys that own and operate it are veterans and have always given me the best haircuts. They’re super cool to talk to and have tons of repeat customers.
