Are We "Sounding a Trumpet" Before Our Alms?
About this episode
The episode discusses the contradiction between Jesus' teaching on almsgiving in secret and the Church's public charitable efforts.
Jesus said to do our alms in secret, not to be seen of men. So why does the Church issue press releases, hire influencers, and create social media campaigns around its charitable efforts?
