The GO needs to go
The pastors of this church haven’t even been to seminary school. Cornelius has also been heard on audio using the church as a tax haven to avoid paying taxes. Heather and Cornelius have been co-mingling funds and using church funds to pay off student loans, spa days and other expenses. They must be stopped

The leaders of this church have been…
The leaders of this church have been accused and are under investigation for financial fraud, mental and spiritual abuse, as well as sexual misconduct. Many of the leaders have left including pastors Solomon and his wife Kristen, the Pittmans, and the Howzes all of whom were close to the Lindsey's. Additionally Solomon, the Pittmans, and Cornelius' former assistant have spoken out and given confirmation/evidence on financial fraud. These information can be found on youtube. The Lindsey's themselves have not accepted any wrong doing except to say it was an attack from the devil,everyone is just jealous, and that it's normal for people to leave church. Not in the same year it's not.

Major Thief Alert!
Major Thief Alert!This church is run by two scamming Pastors: Cornelius Lindsey and his wife Heather “she claims not to be a pastor but gets paid to preach. Make it make sense” Lindsey.They have several former pastors and leaders go on the record to say that they majorly misappropriate church funds. For example, they have been in business (because this is not a church) for 7 years and have no building. BUT they do have a million dollar home. They also had the church pay 20K to Ms. Lindsey for a car that stayed parked in their driveway and eventually was gifted to Cornelius mom. They have also been accused of sexual misconduct and emotional and mental abuse. Be warned! Stay away!!!

Please don’t go to this “church”
Please don’t go to this “church”. After 7 years they still don’t have a building but somehow had the money to buy a million dollar house? Heather & Cornelius Lindsey were also soliciting donations via cash app in April 2020 for a “grocery giveaway”. They posted on social media about supposedly giving away thousands of dollars but never showed any receipts? Where did that money go??? There is absolutely no leadership left whatsoever they’ve all left. No one to hold them accountable! They themselves apparently have overseen the financials for years...big red flag!

Stay Away from The Gathering Oasis Church
Pastor Cornelius Lindsey and Heather Lindsey have been running this church for over 8 years and have little to nothing to show for it except for a million dollar home that they personally own. This church has no office space, no church building, and barely a PO Box, yet Heather and Cornelius Lindsey live in a million dollar home in Smyrna. They are commingling the funds of this church with their personal funds, living a lavish lifestyle, while this church barely has any paid staff or consistent leadership or growth. Please do not give to these people as they are scamming their congregation. There are also rumors of sexual misconduct by Cornelius Lindsey.

This church’s pastors are stealing money
This church is ran by Heather Lindsey and Cornelius Lindsey as pastors and they have been stealing donation money and tithe money meant for a new building. They keep making excuses about why the church doesn’t have a building knowing all along they spent the donation money on personal use. They have been lying for years about not receiving money from the church and every year they have been stealing hundreds of thousands of dollars. I highly recommend you not attending this church or anything else ran by Heather and Cornelius Lindsey.
