➜ “God has a way of dealing with our issues and reminding us He is in charge.” Because we don’t go deep, we don’t get stronger.” ➜ “If I get stronger, I’ve got to go deeper. ➜ “I was at the first one guys, back then we weren’t making global news, but you guys have taken it to a whole other level” Over the past 20 years, Phil’s said some incredible words of wisdom via his sermons. We’ll wait and see how this evolves over the coming months. □ We always need to keep those accountable to a high standard, especially if they are those whom we look up to. If we welcome God’s love we must also welcome His discipline.“Īnd I definitely agree with this response. I sensed that is Phil Dooley’s heart … sadly, I did not get the same assurance from the other participant. So I pray the leadership involved will be willing to let go of excuses, willing to be transparent, willing to put the protection of the flock above the ‘brand’, willing to prioritise what they have been called to do: “feed My sheep”. Rapid growth and popularity altered the focus. It’s the very foundations of the church that need to be repaired / rebuilt – adding onto a structure built on sand will rectify nothing. To quote one of the commenters: “ Phil Dooley has a mountain to climb to set things right, and I feel his pain and integrity – but allowing excuses to perpetuate to soften the impact, will not help. Reading through the YouTube comments, the response was certainly interesting. Some rumors have spread about cover-ups and high staff salaries. This is due to the numerous scandals over the years, and Scott Morrison and his involvement didn’t help their cause. Phil certainly has a huge task at hand to repair Hillsong’s reputation that’s in decline. Many of us hope it always stays this way, unlike the experiences of the man he replaced at the helm. With his fame and the trust of his followers, Phil hasn’t ever faced any controversy himself. He is truly being called by God for a higher purpose, and many of us are with him all the way. ➜ Sharing his family values and life lessons with the world ➜ Possessing incredible communication skills on stage ➜ Having a relatable story that others truly connect with ➜ Being humble and committed to his personal journey Phil has always been a man of conviction, and many appreciate him for: The Dooley’s children may never need to work a day in their life. Yet a typical Hillsong regional pastor would only make around $68,000 per year, earned mainly from donations, so Phil and Lucinda may make more than 10 times that number. However, thankfully, Phil is less about preaching wealth and extravagant lifestyles. If you’d like more insights into these wealthy churches, then influential YouTuber Spencer Cornelia talks about numerous wealthy Pastors here: Unlike the Dooleys, other megachurch Pastors have openly discussed their private jets and supercars. This may include business-class flights, luxury resorts, high-end furniture and European cars.Īlthough they typically don’t talk about this side of their lives, so it’s more than likely they just fly ‘normal class’. So when individuals make donations to the church, a portion will go towards ‘staff expenses’ and some believe that it’s potentially funding a nice lifestyle for the Dooleys and their children. Meanwhile, he still makes time to raise 3 kids with Lucinda! Phil as a ton of responsibility and works 50+ hour weeks for the church. Now, a high income as a Pastor can be justified. □Īlthough I would assume that the ATO would be taking out more than 50%… Taxable income 2022-2023 Still, using $700k as a rough estimate equals $58k per month, so Phil may be making more in a month than many of his donors make in a year. This is similar to what Pastor Brian, but is significantly less than what many other international megachurch Pastors would make in any given year. These amounts are pre-tax, however, Hillsong Churches themselves do NOT pay taxes. It’s fair to estimate that Phil and Lucinda Dooley’s annual salary would be around $700,000 Australian dollars combined. Maybe there will be a media leak on the horizon? It appears that they prefer to keep this a secret from their donors. Unfortunately, Hillsong Global has not yet revealed how much Phil and Lucinda Dooley are paid. Today, in addition to managing my own portfolio, I actively help others in Australia. I have been building profitable content sites since 2011. I think he’s got what it takes, but it’ll be a long and enduring journey that few others could handle. Phil is on a mission to repair Hillsong’s tarnished reputation, and this is no easy task.
