SERMON INFO
The U.S. welfare system sure creates some crazy disincentives to working your way up the ladder. Benefits stacked upon benefits can mean it is financially better, at least in the short term, to stay at a lower-paying jobs rather than taking a higher paying job and losing those benefits. This is called the “welfare cliff.â€

Let's take the example of a single mom with two kids, 1 and 4. She has a $29,000 a year job, putting the kids in daycare during the day while she works.

As the above chart – via Gary Alexander, Pennsylvania's secretary of Public Welfare — shows, the single mom is better off earning gross income of $29,000 with $57,327 in net income and benefits than to earn gross income of $69,000 with net income & benefits of $57,045.

It would sure be tempting for that mom to keep the status quo rather than take the new job, even though the new position might lead to further career advancement and a higher standard of living. I guess this is something the Obama White House forgot to mention in its “Life of Julia†cartoons extolling government assistance.

“ 30% of households are single parents ”
Single moms whether they played the whore, or were abandoned in part or in full through no fault of their own represent 30%+ of households. If we are Christians, we are forgiven and our past is under the blood of Jesus. I am a divorced single mom of 4, if I was not a born-again Christian raised with the work ethic "If you don't work, you don't eat," I would go on welfare. I would have time and energy for my kids and I would actually be eating better and living in a much nicer apartment. God is my provider and God gives me strength. He is the Husband to the widow and Father to the fatherless. The secular churches are a lot kinder and accepting and nurturing than the bible believing churches. This should be a wake up call to the churches to start supporting and encouraging the single moms (not pitying or condemning them). (P.S. Search SermonAudio for single mom/parent..... 5 sermons???)

“ Our own backyard ”
Maybe if the church helped single moms they wouldn't have to turn to welfare.
