Man praises Living Faith Church concerning offering
According to @Big_marvis, which has since attracted 32,000 views, Living Faith does not pass offering baskets around multiple times during a single service or pressure congregants into giving specific amounts.
Instead, people are handed an envelope at the entrance before the service begins. When the designated moment arrives, attendees simply deposit the envelope, with no one around them able to see what is inside or how much has been given.
Speaking more about how Living Faith Church conducts its offering, he said:
“I don’t know about other churches, but in all my years, I have never seen or heard of Living Faith pastors demanding that people come out with different categories of thousands or millions of naira to support a church project or receive any form of miracle.”
“At Living Faith, offerings are not collected repeatedly throughout a service. You are given an envelope ✉️ at the entrance to package your offering or tithe, and when the time comes, you simply drop whatever you are willing to give—without anyone knowing how much you put inside. You can even drop the envelope empty. What you give is between you and God.”
“You can criticise the Bishop and the church as much as you want, but from my experience, I honestly haven’t seen a more disciplined church when it comes to handling offerings and giving.”
“That is one thing I genuinely respect about Living Faith.”
