Would You Attend a Church Whose Pastor Did Not Pay Tithes?

For most of my life I attended churches where the pastor did not tithe and I never knew a thing about it. Once I got involved full time I saw how things were done and I was troubled by it. I'd say only a small percentage of pastors actually tithe or fully "participate in their district's financial plan."

Yep, You are so right!
