“Middle Management (the Tithing Sermon)”
To be a disciple of Christ is to be in training for management of our Lord's resources. And there's a lot to discover in the realm of Biblical giving.

Kingship matters. Jurisdiction matters. But a lot of Canadians are quite content to work for the wrong jurisdiction.
