Pastor of two churches

[Salty]

Pastor Jentezen Franklin is pastor of two churches. He preaches in the morning at his church in Gainesville, Ga.
Than in the evening, he preaches at his other church in California.

To me this sems a bit extreme!

Remember, J. Frank Norris (Independent Baptist) pastored churches in Texas and Michigan:

J. Frank Norris - Wikipedia

"In 1935, Norris accepted the pastorate of a second church, Temple Baptist Church in Detroit, Michigan....For sixteen years, Norris commuted by train and plane between the two churches."

Sounds like a waste of time to me.

Depends on how you feel about preaching, I guess! Paul said, "Woe is me if I preach not the gospel." Maybe Pastor Franklin feels the same way. Jesse Duplantis said he was bored when he went on holiday until he went for a walk along the beach and ended up preaching to a whole group of people who gathered to hear him. Jesse said it was wonderful. One man has his gift in one manner, another in that... 1 Cor 7:7

Time and money.

Didn't we used to chastise the Catholic and Anglican clergy for holding multiple benefices? Would this be similar?

and that is a private jet he flies coast to coast
He is in GA Wed pm - Sun Am and in Calif Sun PM to We Am
So if you are going to have a funeral, be sure to die on the right day.

At least the Methodists had the good sense to put the multiple churches near each other...
