Oddly enough, most people. II
pinned down, win admit to helm,
token givers. And at the same
time, II asked, they will claim
their faith as the most important
thing in their lives.
Let's consider the answers To a
QUESTIONABLE submitted by a min
lister to his protestant congrega-
ton in Milwaukee last year. The
questions. according to the pastor.
were designed to point up ones
relationship with his Lord and to
make an evaluation as to his
faithfulness and loyalty"
Most Of the questions concerned
Christian faith. But one dealt
with financial stewardship and
was divided into three parts. An
swering the first part, more than
80 per cent Of the replies stated
that the member was aware of
his accountability to God for the
manner in which his money was
spent.
The second phase Of the cues
ton asked, What percentage of
your income do you give to God?"
Only so per cent of the congrega-
ton answered. The reason for
their failure to reply was reflected
in the answers to the final phase
rs your gift sufficient" APP
proXimately two-thirds answered
mo" to this question.
Commented the pastor: "Since
the people realize that they are
not sharing their possessions as
they should with the Lord and
His Kingdom, there is a definite
problem Of motivating these mem
bers toward living Stewardship"
Why this paradox? Why do peo-
pie fail to give an adequate a.
mount to God and church when,
at the same time, they acknow-
ledge the overwhelming import
ance of religion in the world Of
today?
am convinced the trouble is
caused by instructive but unin-
territorial token giving on the part |
of the majority OF American
churchgoers. This is unfortunate
for the churcheS-and even more |
unfortunate for the individuals l
because they have not experience
ed the Joy that comes with true
Christian giving.
A real Christian gift assures
the giver in his heart that he is
worshiping his Lord more than
his money. This type of gift to |
church is motivated by love and |
appreciation of God.
The Christian giver knows that
through his gift he is doing his
utmost to support Gods church.
In contrast, the token giver is de-
prived Of this great sense Of par
ticipation in Gods work on earth.
Because / have been so critical
OF token giving, l most certainly
should explain what, in my opin-
ION, constitutes token gift"

to cover the giver's proportionste
share OF the church expenses (for

Serious as it is, I am conyineed
that there is a solution to the
widespread church hardship prof.
lem caused by token giving" Tho
solution is in the character of the
American family. 1 know that
Americans are inherently gener.
Gus and religious. They will give

1t can be defined. I believe. as

represents less than 81 per week
for every $1,000 of annual income
Of the giving family. This is less
than one-half the 1.-THE. It is not
made token" by size alone. but
by comparison to the financial

the need of the giver to give.
