Should the Pastor Know

In many congregations, the culture is one of secrecy around money.  There is a celebration that only one person knows what people give.  Sometimes, pastors are told they aren't allowed to know.  Other times, pastors are uncomfortable and don't want to know what people give.  In Matthew 6.21 Jesus says that giving is a matter of the heart.  In addition to giving being a spiritual issue, there is also a leadership issue in that it is impossible to lead an organization if you don't know where the resources are coming from.    This video attempts to get movement from a culture of secrecy to a culture of generosity.  Confidentiality is very much lifted up, just not secrecy.
