This is actually the strategy of TC -- he creates an environment that prohibits actual leadership growth -- while at the same time convincing these leaders that they are more equipped than all the pastors "out there." It was common over the years for TC to regularly squash others' creative initiatives, and at other times to steal good ideas to make them his own.
Both John Myer and Keith Miller were unique in that they both had "startup" experience. Cincy's website shows that Myer is a welcomed visitor to minister indicating that he has also earned the trust of those originally of the Impact Church.
