It has always required a certain amount of time, talent, and treasure to fully participate in a faith community. It's simply the way of the world.
Reputable churches will not take more money than they need, and will not require any particular offering from anyone.
There will also be professional, transparent oversight and auditing of church funds, so everyone knows where and for what their offerings are being spent.
If the church you attend does not do this, then find another one that does.
Just don't expect a free ride. At least not in this age.

Yes! As long as they're honest about it. I joined the Church of the SubGenius with the full knowledge that "Bob" only wanted my thirty bucks, and that it was probably too late to get a special seat on the flying saucers.
All churches want your money. Only trust those that admit to it.

Ya know...the Roman Catholic church has been this way for many centuries and their experience demonstrates that this WORKS. If it obviously ain't broke...why would they want to fix it?
