Pastor John Gray allowed his members to take from the churches offering, instead of giving.
The Pastor of Relentless Church shared with his congregation that, “the role of the church is also to meet the needs of people in the house.”
“For too long people have stood in a pulpit and told you to give, give, give. Very rarely have I seen churches stop and said ‘leave the baskets out, let the people get what they need.’ We’ve got too many pulpit pimps who want to get fat off people but don’t want to meet the needs of the poor people. And Jesus said that’s who you supposed to be taking care of. We got widows, we got orphans, we’ve got single moms in here. We might not be able to do everything but we can do something. I wish we could do more but it’s the best we can do right now,” Gray said during his sermon titled “Leftovers.”
“I love my church, said Gray. THIS is church. Book of Acts style.”
