There's a church in Hamilton, Ohio that is going to give away $1,000 to two members in attendance on Easter Sunday.
The Lindenwald Baptist Church offered the same incentive last year. They normally see 500 people per week and were hoping that this little bit of hype would attract up to 1,000. It worked, 1,140 showed up.
Excuse me, but this is not why I go to church!
If I want to play the lottery, I know where to go.
Perhaps the people in the church business should remember what business they are really in! The word of God is what you should be giving away.
One more thing, I'm not Baptist, but I always thought that if a church decided to give away money, they should give it to...uh...the poor and needy?
Happy Easter!
