Abstract
How does the church justify putting in over $1 billion to build a mall in downtown Salt Lake City? And did they use tithing money to do that? Also, is it true that the church has over $100 billion in reserve? Why won’t church leaders just disclose exactly how much they actually have? And if it’s anywhere near that number, is it ethical for the church to continue to ask its members, especially its poorer members, to tithe? Furthermore, what’s the deal with the church paying a $5 million fine to the SEC last year? What’d they do wrong? All of these questions and more coming your way on this episode of Church History Matters.Bibliographic Citation
