https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earl_Paulk#ControversiesIn the part about his sexual misdemeanors (almost inevitable for a televangelist ;-), I found the following rather worrying passage which immediately made me think of Joseph Smith Jr.:
"Hall alleges that the affair began in 1983 [...] when Paulk prayed for her, then kissed her. He then would say he intended to "make love" to her. At one point, Paulk supposedly would tell her that they had a "special gift of love outside holy matrimony".[1] The relationship became a weekly occurrence"
