We want to highlight God's radical generosity, and confront the commercialization of Christianity.

The Church was never a market but a body. Does the eye say to the foot, "You need me, so pay me for my services"?

Charging for ministry, whether a lot or a little... paywalls ministry.

The open tomb has now been filled with God’s gifts and sealed with the copyright laws of men.

We beg the world to believe in a God who freely gives, and then charge them to study his Word. #JesusTradeIrony

How strange that the rich feast on theological resources while the poor starve. Did Christ not bless the loaves for all? (Mark 6:41) #AbolishtheJesusTrade

Worship sung for profit is noisy dissonance to the LORD. Let the Church reclaim its song as a gift to God and man. #AbolishtheWorshipTax

Up till now YouTube was forcing ads in our videos beyond our control. We've now reached the threshold on YouTube to either disable or receive the proceeds from ads. And yes, we'll be leaving it off! Thanks for your patience up till now. We've also written an article on why Christian ministries should not show ads, when they have the control over them: Our videos are also still available on the great ad-free platform, Let's Church:

Christ makes fishers of men, not fishers of sales. But today we are drowning in a sea of monetized ministry, tangled in the nets of copyright restrictions.

A church that sells its sermons has forgotten the Sermon on the Mount.

Selling ministry is like bottling sunlight and charging for it. Both are given by the Creator, and neither is ours to hoard.

The word of Christ is a gift, and we have cleverly wrapped it in barcodes.

Maximizing profits from the sale of Jesus is often called “good ministry stewardship” to make it sound better.
