A protester was arrested at a Texas megachurch after he created what officials said was a “disturbance” on church property.

The incident occurred during Sunday services at Fellowship Church in Grapevine, about 20 minutes west of Dallas and involved “an individual disrupting the environment by causing a disturbance with video equipment and signage,” Fellowship Pastor Dave Clark told The Christian Post on Wednesday.

Police responded and issued a warning, but when the man — later identified as filmmaker Nathan Apffel — failed to comply, officers arrested him, according to Clark.

I read that he was asking how much the pastor makes and how much his housing allowance is and noticed he is a film maker so I looked him up. He has some renown and has won some awards.

His latest project is "The Religion Business" a 7 part documentary due out either later this year or early next I think.
He seems to be going after the mega churches, their pastors and the big denomination offices.

Hopefully as he's making this he remembers there is can be a world of difference between churches. Fellowship is a huge and rich baptist church with an apparently very well paid pastor. In the little baptist church I attend, our current pastor started for free because funds were so sparse and we are currently trying to figure out how to raise enough $ to fix the air conditioning.

For every rich mega-church there are 100's if not 1000's of little churches just getting by.
