Who doesn't mind giving a little ... especially when it's convenient, or makes others notice our "good works" ... and the difference in our share is hardly noticed.
But give up my pew to anybody who drags in and wants to sit there? Give up my voice in how things are done? Give up my music ... and every other church tradition I enjoy?
Why, that's like asking me to give up my church.
And I confer on you a kingdom, just as my Father conferred one on me
- Luke 22:29
