I have a question that has been on my mind for some time. Maybe you can have me solve this puzzle. If you have been in a leadership position in the church, you probably have faced this issue.
When a church wishes to purchases something; i.e. carpet, a church van, appliances for the kitchen, etc. why is it that we always (?) we almost always look for something cheap. Something that we ourselves would not buy and put in our home? It makes me wonder if we think God would be pleased with something inferior. Yet, under the Old Testament sacrificial system, your sacrifice had to be the best of your flow. Leviticus 22:19-25
I am a firm believer in good stewardship and I am not calling for extravagance but should not we, who are no longer under the law, also give our best?
I would appreciate any thoughts you might have on the subject.
