I disagree with the premise that you can’t make the budget on the truth. Our church has been in a growth phase since inception, and GOD has funded four buildings in that process. We sit debt free and we preach an uncompromised word.
In the New Testament, we see that a lot of the churches met in homes. Maybe all of them did, because the Jerusalem saints who met in the temple also met ‘from house to house.’ There is no example of a church in the New Testament of a church using its money to build a church building, but many churches spend a large percentage of the budget on this.
