Christians come to the table with many lenses and theological assumptions. Today, I am going to challenge a few.

Today's episode will have some things you may or may not agree with. I am poking at some traditions in a way to challenge YOU and your thinking. I do not know if I am 100% right but I am ok with pointing, observing, and looking under some traditional rocks, if you will.

Churches benefit from a tradition and the phrase "tithing."Pastor teach give to church first then additional goes elsewhereHigh Profile Pastors have NOT helped. Prosperity GospelChurches Spend what they collect by hiring more staff or building more buildings or bigger programs.Many do this spending in the vein of "Seeker Sensitive."Companies that help... wealth giving (taxes & strategies)Companies that help fundraise for projectsPeople like me.... Move church from passing the plate to digital collection of generosity.

Listen in as we discuss churches, fundraising, money, pastors, and giving to churches.
