As I read it, I thought a lot about THE CHURCH, and how we in the Church have created some FALSE ASSUMPTIONS about why things are the way they are. For example...

Barna Research recently noted that giving to churches has not been dramatically affected in certain sizes of churches. Small churches, for example, have done better than expected.
