Churches have become increasingly wary of big banks.
I attended several Christian conferences last year, and, at each one, someone raised concerns about de-banking (the closure of a person or organisation’s bank account by a bank that perceives them to pose a risk to the bank).
This mistrust stems from a fundamental misunderstanding in the relationship between banks and churches and can be driven by lack of communication between the two. More often than not, it seems to be the case that churches may have jumped to conclusions and overlooked the heart of the problem.
