“What does it mean to be a church going hypocrite?”
When I was a church
going pastor, I worked hard to distinguish myself from those who said one thing and did another. I wanted the world to see that there was a different way to do faith. There was, but I couldn’t see it until I finally learned how to give without being hypocrite.
In today’s post we
explore our charitable giving and expose the dirty secret that institutional religion doesn’t want us to see. Turns out Jesus is no more impressed with our modern churches than he was of the temple. Join me now as we see beyond what motivates us to give and expose why we prefer the lesser reward of recognition to something more hidden.
This parody wouldn't be funny if it were not spot on the nose. Take an honest look and ask yourself if your gift is really all about the container rather than the contents.
