Re: Some opinions wanted

I would feel strange if my Pastor did not make more than me.

But if I ever needed financial help, I'd like to know I could turn to the church for help.

I've never felt that liberty at any church I've attended. Maybe that's just my nervousness.

I grew up in a church that was very good at giving back to others when in need. My family was recipient on many occasions. I think that if you attend a church and are faithful in giving into that church then when you need help there are members in the congregations that routinely give without others knowing where it came from.

Asking for financial help is sometimes necessary but churches many times don't have extra funds to give but give by way of groceries and paying a utility bill at times. Asking for financial help should be limited to deperate situations not as a rule.

Blessings, Rhoni
