GC - tithing not talked about...

Post by _Drifting »

For the first Conference in perhaps 100 years, the topic of tithing was not included in the content of a single talk during the two days making up General Conference April 2012.

Hmmm....

Yes, I have noticed an absolute distance between tithing and the discussions of the use of tithing since the fallout of the City Creek Mall Disaster (circa 2012).

Remember, the 5 billion used for the mall and SLC development did not come from tithing, it came from the Church bookstore, more specifically the majority came from Boyd K Packer books.
