It tends to drift into other churches in small bits and pieces.
When I was in the UMC, someone brought up “What can we say from the pulpit to get people to give more money?”. I thought that was a tad disturbing.
I now attend a non-denom and they don’t even pass a collection plate. When someone mentioned the church could make more money if they passed a plate, the elder responded “We aren’t here to make money”.

Indeed

I meet with like minded people for fellowship. I avoid boxes
