Wake refreshed. We come too burlington to buy our coats and to give them back. To help those in need. It makes buying coats here even seconds. Good evening and thanks for joining us on this thanksgiving. The pastor youre about to meet is so dedicated to his faith, hell spread the gospel any way he can. Even if its unorthodox. With a little help from his glamorous friends and his equally glamorouous wife. Tonight we take an encore look at how that creative approach works to bring in worshippers for our series faith matters. Reporter it was the wedding made in tabloid heaven. Most famous people on the planet, tying the knott in an televised thanks to keeping up with the kardashians. No one expected the pastor uniting them in holy trimony, tucked behind the bride and groom, to steal so much of the all of a sudden reporters are showing up. Everybody wants an interview. But i wastterly shocked, why is anyone even focused on me . Reporter maybe his uncanny resemblance to leonardo dicaprio, catching the attention of tmz. Pastor rich wilkinson jr. , aka the lords leo. Hes pretty. A lot of people think, well, you know, a man of god shouldnt hang out with hedonism or hiphop, profanity. Do those thihings collide . I think we have to understand that you dont have to approve of someone or even agree with someone always to accept them. Jesus, the greatest criticism of him is that he was a friend of sinnnners and guest of sinners. Youre like a celebrity magnet. I feel a lot of people get terms like celebrity pastor and i think were the opposite of theres people in my church no ones ever goingo talk about. Reporter whether he likes the term it hasnt hurt. I love my life. Repororter ricand his wife, also a preacher in her own right, have a new reality show. Were a team in everything that we do. Reporter rich in faith chchannel. Hes got a book deal, the cover designed by kanye. I think the language of the culture, either curse the darkness or light a candndle. You dont . Things you dont know about me after how many years . Do i think im going to be criticized . Absolutely. For me i want to use every tool we possibly can in our culture to promote faith. This is it, man. Reporteter dontet his tattup hipster look fool you. Rick wilkinson jr. Is legit. Ive got a plan, ive got a purpose reporter fourth generation pentecostal preacher, eve though his sermons feel like rock concert records less fire and brimstone, more modernday straight talk. If you dont kno reporter issues like sex. T girl on the side, a girl you call up at 2 00 a. M. And she knows whats up. Reporter and marriage. Husbands, love your wives just as christ loved the church. Good to see everybody. Reporter but gay or straight, prochoice or prolife, he says he wants to make going to church cool. Were frontrow people, filling in seats. Reporter hes on a mission to get millennials in e door and sell them on the holy spirit. The vast majority of young people are having premarital sex. Is our culture in conflict with morality . I believe the message of jesus goes even deeper than morality. If were not careful we reduce the message of jesus to behavior modification. When i think its about heart transformation. Reporter rich is perhaps the latest in a wave of preachers creatively marketing their brand. Toto help spad the gospel. The bible says that we have an adversary called the devil. Reporter using methods from the sublime to the ridiculous. Bull riding pastors to mixed martial arts ministers. All in an effort to get people in the pews. There were outlandish tactics at you undertook. Oh my gosh, youre killing me. Swallowing a gold fish . How do you find this stuff . Is this really out there . Didou really get yourself stunned by a stun gun . More of a zapper hopefully you come back next week reporter his tactics are more sophisticated these days buword of these charismatic preachers is spreading. With a growing fan base hes opened a new bigger church. Called vous, as in rendezvous, in the heart of hipster miami. Vous church. Reporter they set up the new digs the day before the first sunday sermon. What will this stage look like tomorrow tomorrow theres going to be a whole bunch of singers up there, screens, lighting. I mean, i dont know, i think its hopefully it looks like a normal youve been to concerts. I think we try to ke church feel a little bit more norm. Reporter theyre expecting a owd of or 600. The goal tonight, no judgments, just acceptance. When you get attacked by other christians who are saying, your christianity is not correct or your christianity doesnt live up to my ideals, how do you deal with that . Im not as concerned about the critics. I know theyll come. If were being honest, it hurts our feelings. I do want t people tlike me. At the samame time, i don know thats what gods called me to, that everybody like me. Reporr he shies away from hotbutton issues like gay marriage or abortion because he says he doesnt want to drive people away if you had a congregant who cacame to you and said, wl you marry me, ive been faithful to my gay lover, weve built this home. Would you marry them . I would for sure he a conversation with them first. I think what troubles me is youre either on one side or the other and as soon as you choose a side its like, you know youre attacked by the other . Youre attacked byhe other. Reporter kickoff sunday, people are lining up to hear pastorich preach. Most of these people dont lk like your average churchgoers buthats exactly what rich is hoping for. Its showtime. Ready . Lets do it. Go ahead and give jesus a big round of applause. Reporter he uses humor as well as urban slang. I got pumped. Oh, got my bible back i flipped out. Reporteter his sries and his style perhaps uniquely poised to reach this hipster generation of worshippers. I want to tell you, your value is not determined by this world, your value is determined god said ive got a plan for you. God said youre perfect inside of y you. Ure valuable.

My lil buddy . And what if this happened again . I was given warfarin in the hospital but i wondered if this was the right treatment for me. Then my doctor told me about eliquis. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots and redus the risk of them happening again. Not only does eliquis treat dvt and pe blood clots, but eliquis also had significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. Knowing eliquis had both. Turned around my thinking. Dont stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. If you had a spinal injection while on equis call your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. While taking eliquis, you may brbruise moreasily. And it may take longer than usual for eeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may incrse your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Eliquis treats dvt pe blood clots. Plus had less major bleeding. Both madade switchg to eliquis right for me. Ask your doctor if its right for you. Whatcha doin . Just prepping for my boss party in a couple weeks. What are those . Crest whitestrips.

Yet his rise has everything to do with social media. And its ability to mint new music stars at warp speed. Could you have done it without a vine, a facebook . To be honest i dont think i would have had the confidence to step in the street and start singing. Reporter two years ago shawn mendes had never sung a pop song outside his home in pickering, ontario. Hed grown fascinated by cover versions of big hits on youtube, the same diy efforts that got juststin biebenoticed. I think i was so intrigued by the fact that someone could take a popular song and make it their own. And that on top of that, people could like that more than the original. When did you start thinking that could be me, i could try that . I had one friend and she was like, i know y you sing,hy dont you try it, post it . Reporter which he did. Not only on youtube, as bieber had, but on facebook and on vine. Its just so unique at the time. You know, no one was doing that. I didnt do it to become famous, i didnt do it to get recognition. I just did it for fun. Reporter until one day in august 2013, when he posted six seconds of himself singing biebers hit as long as you love me. It was an overnight smash. Was that frightening when it blew up . Totally. Like, i dont want that. That scared me. I was like, i cant do this. A couple of days went by. My friends were like, dude, you keeps going up . Youre at t 15,000. Im like, maybe i should do someththing abouthis. I went back on and posted a lot more.
