Understanding the economic divide in the Church – Send Network
“…lack of diversity in income within our churches is most likely unintentional. Since most of us rarely interact on a relational level with persons from other socioeconomic classes, we have a limited idea of the barriers between us. Most of our pastors have a higher education, often gained through years of exclusion in socioeconomically homogenous institutions. Therefore, most American churches are led by the middle class and, unless much conscious effort is exerted, designed for the middle class.”
