Each Member to Work

As I traveled through the South on my way to the Conference, I saw city after city that was unworked. What is the matter?

If the proper instruction were given, if the proper methods were followed, every church member would do his work as a member of the body. He would do Christian missionary work. But the churches are dying, and they want a minister to preach to them. They should be taught to bring a faithful tithe to God, that He may strengthen and bless them.
