The Truth Behind the Church’s $100 Billion+ Fund E0027

What lies behind the financial success of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints? Church Historian Casey Griffiths seeks to challenge common assumptions—that the Church's wealth is secretive, excessive, and mismanaged. He helps us understand that the Law of Consecration, a principle rooted in unity and faith, is the cornerstone of its financial practices, guiding its mission and humanitarian efforts worldwide. We discuss common misconceptions, the balance between saving and giving, and why the Church operates differently from other religious organizations.
