Others seem to disagree.
The Rev. Hector Gomez, a former Without Walls staff member who left in 2000, told the Tribune that the church is all about money and fame now.
"A lot of drama inside and too much attention paid to getting exposure and publicity on the outside," he said.
As the Whites prepare to go their separate ways, Randy announced this week there will be some changes at Without Walls, including becoming less independent by teaming with other ministries in the city and more visible in the community.
Meanwhile, Paula, who rose to international renown, said she knows followers will feel disappointed by the announcement given that evangelical Christians hold marriage as a sacred institution and a cornerstone of a godly life, according to TBO.
"I wish there was a magic formula that gave you guarantees in life," she said. "Now I have to draw deep into my faith and let God draw me out of this dark place."
She told congregants on Thursday that the decision was one of the most painful of their lives but expressed hope saying, "God always comes to you in the dark places of life."
Also acknowledging that the news would let a lot of people down, Randy said he takes "100 percent responsibility" for the split.
Randy and Paula White founded Without Walls International as South Tampa Christian Center in 1991.
