The Blissenbach family works together on a devotional project at family camp. Together they seek to see the Glory of the Lord. In the same way Resurrection trusts, lives and serves together so as to recognize and respond to the Glory of the Lord. Together we are fellow servants and not simply religious consumers.
One of the reasons churches in North America have trouble guiding people about money is that the church’s economy is built on consumerism. If churches see themselves as suppliers of religious goods and services and their congregants as consumers, then offerings are ‘payment.’ Doug Pagitt, author in the Emerging Church movement and pastor
