So basically, when you go to church, how much do you put in the envelope? I've heard from "whatever you can afford" to 20$ a week.


What do you put in?

I give just enough to meet the threshold of my kid getting discounted tuition at the school. LOL
I think it's $500 per year

They pass around the tray for poors, old people, and kids. The real money is collected behind the scenes and via bank drafts.

Bible says 10% but I'm pretty sure they didn't have taxes back then, so that's where it gets confusing.

How do people support the church after seeing movies like spotlight or the docu series Keepers? Damn fools are what they are

Throw some money up in the air. God will catch whatever he wants. Everything else is yours.

I bring donuts and milk and OJ

Quit giving cash when I found my money was being used for the pastor to go On Vacations and daily hooters lunches. I also left that church
