| Post subject: | c6thplayer1: Interesting Business Meeting |
| A fiend of mine was telling me of an experience he had with a local COG. Here it is.He attended a business meeting where the financial stats were discussed. They were vague when it came to the salaries of the staff. He said those stats were lumped into one category and not broken out individually. So he asked the question if they could be broken into individual categories. The business manager of the church replied that it was none of his business and that he didn't ask how much money he made in his place of employment. My friend just sat down and didn't challenge the business manager. Big mistake in my opinion. Needless to say my friend no longer attends that church. He was a consistent tithe payer. |

| That definitely could have been handled with more tact. I've heard of some churches lumping all salaries into one category and leaving it at that on the financial report. Even with that, unless we're talking about a really big (mega) church, it wouldn't be too hard to figure out roughly how much each makes. |

| Brother this guy is a really nice person and he just asked a question , and from knowing him , it was asked in a very professional manner. He saw the defensive action of the business manger and elected not to push the issue further. He told me he left because as a member he has a right to ask a question and if the BM would have responded in a business like manner he would have stayed in the church regardless of his answer. He said he trusted the staff but was curious about a few items. His final remarks were that if they treated him like that for asking a question then how would they treat me if I needed prayer And now he would shy away from even asking. |

| BJames, that is pretty mean spirited in itself. The OP was quoting a friend. I personally believe I am responsible to know if I am donating, giving to an open group (church) that they are wise men/women.Evidently you are very successful in the work, but the statement is curt and pretty mean. Of course that is JMO. Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]://shipslog-jack.blogspot.com/ |
