FOREWORD
A man in a church I once attended lost his home, vehicle, and savings through forced bankruptcy. When he asked the pastor for support, he was urged to step down from two church boards. It seems his business dilemma made him unfit for leadership.
Another victim told me of being ostracized after he lost his business. One fellow Christian would leave church by a side door to avoid having to talk to him.
