Amen!

Over the years David you have talked about this subject & I appreciate that.

If you had known my past with ministries and promoting them along with lack of financial support you'd understand more why this is such a deep subject with me.

When I see fancy pants chairs, coffee tables in the lobby, the list goes on and on realizing this does not help God's people, it doesn't fulfill his mission, but it does give visitors the wow first impression it breaks my heart to see these buildings of waste.

High ceilings, 50K sound systems. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!

I've always said there is bad anger and good anger.

Please stay angry at things that are not right in God's eyes!

Notice this part ........... God's eyes!
It's very simple to know of ones anger is in align with God by reading his word.

I believe with all my heart when we speak out, let our actions speak, God will honor that anger when it's about a situation that is not giving glory to him.




I've spoken on this part many times ............

If you are trying to find a church first ask for their budget.

In reading that you will find out if that church has a heart for what God commanded us to do or a heart for careers and being a nice no rock the boat church that fits in with the world all the while skipping by God's word that says do not CONFORM to this world!

Our preacher preached just a couple Sundays ago about churches hording cash....stashing back for "hard times" so speak...the point was...people are always in need...spend that money to help...because...if we truly believe in God and His word...God will always supple what the church needs to better His kingdom!

And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that having all sufficiency in all things at all times, you may abound in every good work. As it is written, “He has distributed freely, he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures forever.” He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your seed for sowing and increase the harvest of your righteousness. You will be enriched in every way to be generous in every way, which through us will produce thanksgiving to God.
