Introduction

Murdock is the founder of Wisdom Centre. He was born in Louisiana in 1946. Before becoming a pastor, Michael attended the Southwestern Assemblies of God University where he dropped out after only three semesters in 1966.

He started his pastoral career through establishment of the Mike Murdock Evangelistic Association in 1973. Through this association, he has conducted several fundraising campaigns and toured the country to preach to congregations.

Murdoch has been at the center of many controversies over the years. This was mainly due to his fundraising efforts and the way he has accumulated his wealth.

In 1989, he was heavily condemned for his fundraising efforts for Jim and Tammy Bakker. The couple claimed to be experts at mending broken marriages and couples but were later imprisoned for fraud.

Michael was also involved in another controversy in 2003. Publications claimed that he only donated 40% of the amount raised through his foundation, and the rest going to his own personal enrichment.

Personal Life

Michael has four siblings. His sister, Deborah, is an active member of his association and works alongside him during their fundraising drives.

He is currently divorced but was earlier married to Linda Lormand. The couple had one adopted child Jason, who went on to live with Linda after the divorce was finalized in 1979.

He is a towering figure standing at a height of five feet nine inches.

He is also an accomplished writer with his book, Wisdom for Winning becoming a bestseller. Extra revenue that he earns also comes for the over five thousand songs he has written.

In 2004, Michael through his association acquired the International Faith Centre and converted it to a church. The property is estimated to have a value of over $1.5 million.

According to an exposé by John Oliver, a clip was shown where Michael is said to flaunt his collection of private jets. He also owns a 9,000 square feet home in Argyle, Texas, which has been valued at over $2.5 million.
