Who cares that there's homeless children in Springfield? This woman can stand on her tip toes now! God has priorities.

Jesus "Holy Reaganomics" Christ.

Unfortunately I can see that sentiment being half believed by members of JRC. I used to go tl JRC and they always used to give sermons about the poor widow who came along and put in two small copper coins. The poor woman, as a widow, would have had no source of income after her husband's death. Therefore the two small copper coins were all she had - and yet she offered them to God. We were taught to give even if we had nothing.

We were also taught in the youth sermons that if we did nothing for God, not giving tithes or evangelicalizing and recruiting people to join the church that we would get nothing in heaven. We'd be homeless in heaven essentially lol.
