We would like to buy the building which is priced at about $4 million dollars but the pastor doesn't want to do it until we can pay cash for it. He is determined not to ever let a payment on debt hang over his head and effect any decision making or subjects of sermons, etc.

I commend him on the financial responsibility......He probably is a Dave Ramsey follower.
