At least five people asked David Musselman to leave the church property in Taylorsville, some gave him money and most were indifferent.
He said he disguised himself as a homeless man to teach his congregation a lesson about compassion. To make his appearance more convincing, he contacted a Salt Lake City makeup artist to transform his familiar face to that of a stranger not even his family recognized.
"The main thing I was trying to get across was we don't need to be so quick to judge," Musselman told KUTV-TV.
He received varied reactions to his appearance at church, he said.
