We were in a church that was working very hard on an endowment fund. I kept my mouth shut but was itching to ask WHAT FOR? So the church can keep going on without depending on God's provision?

At our last church ...What a wonderful blessing!!!!! At our last church (the ubber dysfunctional one) the church literally had $60,000 in the bank just sitting there, for who-knows-what reason. They payed my husband hardly ANYTHING and had all that money just sitting there for things only they knew about. In our 3yrs there they gave him one terrible, hardly noticeable raise and 2 pay cuts, again with all that $$ just sitting there. This was only 1 of the many dysfunctions. However, at our new church we have experienced the same thing as you, they just want my husband to teach and shepherd them and not be concerned with the budget. Isn't it grand to be part of a healthy "family?"Jenihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09547331595156695529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7237726868006702282.post-13676613773555062782011-03-09T11:48:32.826-06:002011-03-09T11:48:32.826-06:00Oh praise God!
