Costi Hinn, the nephew of televangelist Benny Hinn, has spoken out against his uncle's ministry, revealing the lavish life he lived growing up and why he ultimately rejected the system. Hinn, born into a wealthy televangelist family, described his upbringing as filled with luxury, including a nearly 10,000-square-foot home with various amenities and frequent lavish vacations.
He later entered Benny Hinn's ministry as a personal assistant, traveling in style and participating in healing crusades.
