Money, Prosperity, Tithes, Offerings

Season 4, Episode 6 - This week, the loaded terms are money, mammon, tithe, and offering. What is the property gospel? Why do some Christians follow it, instead of Jesus? Does Judaism have an equivalent? Should clergy know what people give? Can't service and time replace our need to give money? What did jubilee, the 7th year shabbat practice of forgiveness of debts, mean to the poor and the wealthy? Whew, maybe that's why this episode is almost an hour!
