Is Monetising Your Ministry Godly or Not?

In this episode, apostle Gina and her mum delve into the controversation of monetising your ministry. They discuss how to approach monetisation in a way that honours God and serves others. They will explore the biblical examples of the Levites, who were supported to focus entirely on their ministry, and how this applies to modern-day faith-driven platforms. They will:

• Emphasise the importance of maintaining integrity and prioritising service over profit, addressing the prevalence of unethical practices in today's landscape.
• Highlight the need for discernment and accountability, reminding believers to be wary of misleading models and ensure that their ministry efforts align with God's teachings. 
• Encourage you to seek guidance through prayer and discernment, challenging the notion that all monetisation is inherently wrong, and
• Reevaluation of the practice, urging a balance between financial support and spiritual integrity.
