We read two examples of giving to the church–one good, and one bad. The good example (Barnabas) started with being generous with what he had, then expanded his whole life in an incredible ministry of encouragement. The bad example (Ananias & Sapphira) tried to get more recognition instead of being honest, then they died. (!) We'll talk about what's going on in these interesting stories.
