Last Call - Pg 104

   I remember moments at St. Andrew when there wasn't enough money to help people who came to our door because we simply did not allocate enough money to outreach—and at the same time there were $10,000 pieces of art in our entryway. It is heartbreaking to know we can't help a family that is struggling, but we have multiple baby grand pianos. There is no question that affluent churches do a lot of good. It is rarely about one instance; it is a constant monitoring. When buildings get built and Jumbotron screens get hung while people lose their jobs, benefits get cut, and furlough days get enacted, something is wrong. If we are  spending more money on sheet music than outreach, something ain't right.
