A young family regularly sits behind my parents during morning worship. Every Sunday when the offering is taken, the father gives each of his children a dollar to put in the collection plate. One Sunday, their little boy Dusty brought a friend to church. As my father passed the offering plate to his family, Dusty, without a second thought, tore his dollar bill in half, then handed a "half dollar" to his friend to place in the plate.
Timeless wisdom for pastors with forward-thinking solutions.
