I took the time to look up the top 5 churches in attendance in our larger states (some states don't post attendance) and compared their attendance to their tithes. It seems that Alabama and Tennessee have some churches with the biggest discrepancy between their reported attendance and reported tithe. I just found it interesting.

May be some manipulation, then when you have several millionaires attend that pay tithes it does look out of proportion. Unless you have a inside knowledge it is hard to say.Probably mixing apples and mangoes here. I know churches with a BIG bus ministry is high in attendance and low in income from my area. Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/

That is easier to do when you have a single billionaire who gave 50% of that. Don't get me wrong, I celebrate the favor on the church and rejoice with them. I am just saying...not everyone has that kind of dynamic.

But let’s face reality, it is the small church that pulls the church of God and just about every denomination. Check this graphic out from the association of small churches. Here is their Facebook m.facebook.com/ASCPastors/I love big churches, but why do you think state campground cater to the small or mid sized church. It is because those churches are the main source of funding for them. Now we are facing the reality that small churches are closing. Who is filling that gap of resources

Tithe

What really goes to help

Bump!
