Barna reveals trends in tithing and church giving
A shift is taking place. We have some important decisions to make.
Barna confirms the trend in tithing and donating is just as we expected. People are choosing to donate a portion of their charitable giving to non-church organizations.
The church is worth fighting for. It's time to get our "A" game on and give people measurable results with our ministry decisions. It's time to make our case that the church is the primary vehicle God has designated to empower and expand the Kingdom until His return.
Choosing silence or choosing to do "more of the same" will encourage this trend.
How are you planning to address this trend in your church?
