I realy appreciate these articles on finances of the church they are realy cruacially in many ways.Normally if a church does not get robbed a member in the finance team experiences a moment of weakness and pinches on the church money sometimes thinking to borrow it without the knowledge of leaders. This is really important.

For some reason in my area there's an awful lot of church personnel stealing from Church accounts. Practically every time you pick up the paper or turn on the news, a secretary, treasurer, accountant, pastors, etc. are being arrested for stealing from their Church. They have all these excuses, got into gambling without realizing they were in that deep, thanks to drinking lost their job or can't pay their bills, and the pastor, he said "He was owed it because the Church couldn't afford a raise for him". Even going to court after being arrested, as time goes by, the offender is paying back the money over 30 years but not serving time. If they were working for a business like where I work, they would be serving time. I think that's why stealing from a Church is so easy because the person knows the Church will forgive them. I don't know how the church members manage to make up the stealing while they're paying back in 30 years as the judge orders.
