One church says "lose your job, get your contributions back"
This is a bold move.
It requires trust and respect from both sides of the table: the church and the church member.
It asks both parties to act in faith and share the responsibility.
If you're sitting in the pew, would this encourage you to give in the midst of an uncertain employment and economic climate?
If you're standing in the pulpit, would this change how you spend available funds, evaluate your spending based on "return-on-investment" and result in better communication of the ministry accomplished?
Of course it would.
Maybe this is the solution we need to overcome the fear that seems to be lurking around every corner.
Would you do this in your church?
Why not?
