Important message @papa-pepper; and it's a duality I often encounter in my own ministry. And people — who may even embrace aspects of spirit into their lives — may very sincerely look at me and say, "That's all very nice, but God's love isn't going to write a $130 check for my power bill before 3pm today!" And in the purely physical interpretation of the situation, that's hard to argue with... of course, having grown up in the LDS Church, tithing is a way of living.
I like that you mixed in the "Love Languages" here, very helpful.
Bright Blessings to you and yours!
