A well-known pastor who currently serves at a megachurch in Greenville, South Carolina is defending his gift of a $200,000 Lamborghini to his wife.
John Gray posted a video of the giving of the gift to his wife Aventer Gray on his Instagram page (the vehicle was seen with a large bow on it, according to reports). But after people complained that it was too big of a gift and questioned if he used Relentless Church's money, John Gray had to come to his own defense.
He tearfully took to Facebook Live where he told viewers"not a penny" of the church's money was usedto purchase the vehicle. He said it was simply a gift from a husband to a loving wife.
"My wife has pushed for my dreams and my vision, and she has toiled with a man who is still trying to find himself," Gray said. "That carries a weight. I wanted to honor her for how she’s covered me."
John Gray gave the gift to Aventer Gray for their 8-year anniversary, for which they also had a lavish celebratory event, which is seen on John Gray's Instagram page.
John Gray has been pastor at the Greenville megachurchsince May. It has an estimated 22,000 parishioners on multiple campuses.
The pastor also earns money from book deals, as he is an author.
