The Pastor's Heart with Dominic Steele

How to teach on money with Gary Hoag!


Listen Later

Getting money right in the Christian Church

What’s your word to the pastor, when just down the road there is a big prosperity church doing flashy ministry? 

The Prosperity Gospel is a different gospel, not good news, says the Generosity Monk Gary Hoag

Seminaries have not done a good job teaching on money.  There are big errors:

  • Prosperity - Taking Old Testament promises out of context,
  • Slavery - Sending people back to slavery by teaching the tithe,
  • Culturally - If your message sounds good culturally it’s probably another gospel,

Instead what we need to pursue is the Spirit’s fruit of generosity, and Gary says the fruit will then take care of itself.

Not only should you not care what the humans think.  You can’t care.  You are playing to an audience of one. 

Plus how do we define success?  How do we think about outcomes in ministry?  How do we not look for the wrong things?

How should we think about budgeting as as church?
