Money and Salvation

An interview with Dr. Andrew Geleris, author of Money and Salvation - An Invitation to the Good Way, explores the biblical foundation of almsgiving, tithing, and whole burnt offerings. He also challenges the typical ministry-centric approach to parish fundraising and suggests a soul-centric approach.
