Would Jesus crash here?
Famed Orange County tele-preacher Robert A. Schuller (whose white-haired same-named dad is even more famous, having built the Crystal Cathedral and all) and his wife, Donna, are offering up their plush Three Arch Bay home on Stonington Road in South Laguna for a cool $700 a night—or $5,000 a week—per couple, according to this listing on airbnb.com.
But you won't have the place all to yourself—sorry, party rockers, no keggers.
The catch is that it's part of a "spiritual retreat" the Schullers are offering. They'll be rooming in the four-bedroom, four-bathroom crib right there with you, offering "two hours of private counseling per day" as part of the package.
(Actually, they will let you have the keys to the place without the counseling, but those prices—for either three-, six- or nine-month stays—aren't listed, so you'll just have to "contact Donna and Robert for more information and booking," it says.)
Of course, browsing through the pics of the house is free, so we've posted a few in the box just above and right ...
Here's the listing info ...

Some interesting side notes: no smoking, no hot tub, no cable TV (?), no pool, and it's not handicapped-accessible. Just warning ...!
Question ok, then, to see what other places available for Laguna bay(s) home(s) for other faiths/prophets. Should be at least 4 or 5 other faiths present in town. Interesting to know availability for similar promotions.
If yu do one prophet... maybe there's another profit motive that's elsewhere... curious
My concerns's still with where's stuff on other religious rentals and appropriate editorial crit eek on differing beliefs/prophets, if yucan help (...i.e., even The Ritz vs. The Saint Regis, if yu halve the experience...) Thanks; y'help/knowledge-base appreciated. Truly
Keep the faith
Egalitarian treatment for each of religious leaders, followers', prophets also good. Aretha got it right, whether yure in O.C., Oman, or Okinawa... (Bestaluck tho, on workin thru that free speech thing)
