I was so touched a iTown church last night in Noblesville. They took an offering at the Christmas service and said this, "if there is anyone in need feel free to take money from the bucket. If there is not enough money in the bucket for your need, please talk to one of the pastors of this church - they have money that they are ready to give to those in need this Christmas."
I have been in ministry for years and have never seen this before.
Thoughts?????
@sinbach Brother Eugene, I experienced that when I was at a Christmas service in Nashville in 1995. I couldn’t believe the generosity and joy when people gave their offerings. Only 4x people were willing to come up at the end of the service but I can tell you this, the Holy Spirit was alive in that place. Bethel Chapel in Franklin TN if I recall. I’ll never forget that morning.
