(AJC) — Shaun King may be known as “the Facebook pastor,” but nobody was buying into his idea of using Twitter as a venue to auction off celebrities for charity.
“Everybody I told about the idea hated it,” said King, the 31-year-old Atlanta pastor who heads up The Courageous Church in Midtown.
“People didn’t think it would work, and they didn’t think people in their right mind would bid on such a thing,” he told the AJC.
