Peace, and have a good and Godly day!

All that talk about "seed money" made me think about Paul's word in the same epistle, "we are not like the many, peddling the word of God."

The Bible does say, "let your requests be made known to God." I do believe, for the most part, that churches must learn to operate within a budget that their offerings provide.
