For a few weeks or so I'll be sharing some funny cartoons -- one each Sunday -- dealing with money and the church. These are meant to be humorous, not demeaning or degrading, so if there's any offense, please forgive me. The cartoons are used by permission and provided by the Rev. Brian Kluth.
Here's today's funny (click on picture to enlarge it):

I like. I bet you could make the same joke about any non-profit organisation.

Yeah, we were donating "only" $12,000 a year to our local church. When some things changed and we changed churches mid-year, no one ever bothered to follow up with us to see where we were and/or why our donations stopped.

Matthew -
Hopefully they wouldn't have followed up with you because of the money! It is a shame they didn't follow up with you if you were active participants in the church but I would have hated it if they followed up with you because of your tithes. It would have been great for them to make sure you were okay, send a card saying hi and ask if there is anything they can pray for you for (again especially if you were active, by active I mean in fellowship with the body there known by them and to them, but even if not the principle remains). That is too bad.

I just saw your blog from The NY Times post. I'm a Christian too and write a business blog (we have something in common).
I'll be checking yours out.
Thanks, Jason M. Blumer
