This book explores the arguments for supporting the preaching of the Gospel through voluntary contributions rather than pew rents. The author argues that this system is more in line with the teachings of Jesus and the apostles, who taught that the preaching of the Gospel should be free and accessible to all. The author traces the history of pew rents and discusses the social and economic factors that have led to their prevalence. The author contends that pew rents create a barrier to entry for those who cannot afford to pay, and that they can lead to a sense of elitism and exclusivity within the church. The author offers a compelling case for the adoption of a voluntary system, arguing that it is more equitable, more effective, and more in keeping with the spirit of the Gospel. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and practice of church finance, and for those who are seeking a more just and equitable way to support the preaching of the Gospel.
