It's season five of "The Raceless Gospel" podcast, and this time it's "A Love Offering" -- an examination of the North American church's questionable relationship with money and an excoriation of flock-fleecing shepherds and modern-day money changers who turn a dollar into health and wealth and call it ministry.

Rev. Starlette Thomas, director of the Raceless Gospel Initiative at Good Faith Media, is host of "The Raceless Gospel" podcast. Thomas delivers an audio audit of the North American church's messages about giving. She talks about the dollars and cents of Christian ministry, and interrogates the so-called saving power of money and the churches that bank on this belief.

Episode 7: "Balance the Books."

What happened to the year of Jubilee and the year of the Lord’s favor? Something’s not adding up. In this episode, we discuss the need for an audit, which is to say a reckoning.

Guest: Andrew Wilkes.
