Dave, thanks for your excellent presentations in the GAMC discipleship committee and then to the GAMC as a whole. Is the webinar available for download and/or the PowerPoint from the webinar? Thanks, Carmen

As Pastor of our congregation (Bethesda Presbyterian Church, Bethesda, MD), I have initiated what has turned out to be a spirited discussion among session as to whether I, the pastor, should know who pledges and how much each person pledges. Several years ago, I heard David Johnson of your office at a workshop advocate strongly for the pastor knowing. I am familiar with some of his reasoning, and yet as you probably know a majority or strong minority in most churches, I feel, would be horrified by this idea. Our session is all over the map, and is open to discussing this some more. Could you point me in the direction to some resources that would aid our discussion over the next few months? Thank you! -- Chuck
