Was listening to a pastor who said that they REQUIRED all of their missionaries to support missions and to tithe.
The church takes all the funds that come in, deducts the missionary's tithe and mission support, and then sends on the rest.
I was appalled at this. When I give to missions, I expect everything I give to support the missionary, NOT his home church.
But maybe I'm just naive -- is this really a common practice?
And... is it right?
