THE CHURCH OF ALL TITHERS
Dr. Hugh McKean of Chiengmai, Thailand, tells of a church of 400 members where every member tithes. They receive a weekly wage of 40 stangs [less than twenty cents] and their rice. Of this meager existence, each gives a tenth every week. Because of this, they have done more for Christ in Thailand than any other church. They pay their own preacher and have sent two missionary families to spread the gospel in a community cut off from the outside world. They are intensely interested in all forms of Christian work, especially work for unfortunates of every kind; and their gifts for this kind of work are large. They have not only accepted Christ, but, having found Him good, they are making Him known to others. Oh, by the way, this church of all tithers is also a church of all lepers — every person has leprosy.
