"If I give a kid money walking through the parking lot of the church and I give them $5 to put in the offering plate while they're in children's church, they don't experience the thrill of giving, because they are not a giver but a courier, they carried my $5 and put it in the plate. If instead the kid has cleaned up their room and fed the dog and earned some money on their commissions and some of that money goes in their giving envelope and their giving envelope money goes into the offering plate at the church, whether they are five or fifteen they've experienced the joy of giving."
