About this ebook

Passing the Plate shows that few American Christians donate generously to religious and charitable causes. This eye-opening book explores the reasons behind such ungenerous giving, the potential world-changing benefits of greater financial giving, and what can be done to improve matters. By illuminating the social and psychological forces that shape charitable giving, Passing the Plate is sure to spark a much-needed debate on a critical issue.

This is a helpful book for pastors, Christian leaders and anyone who wants to be challenged with the reality that Christians in America give so little compared to their wealth. This is not an anti-American book that bashes selfish Americans. That is not the point. This is a book that seeks to answer the riddle - why do American Christians give so little in spite of their wealth and the commands in Scripture to give generously.
