Lmao! Joel isn't going to give you anything. 🤣 Joel is probably going to add this story to one of his sermons, and make more money.

Now someone needs to look into why that money was hidden there.

[izayoi]

Finding the money was his reward but he gave it away. Oh well.

[Tibs_Official]

HE SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN A REWARD !!! THERE WAS A REWARD FOR IT AND HE DID THE RIGHT THING AND TURNED IT IN !! 🙄 HE COULDVE KEPT IT....

[MrLewis-lrep]

Maybe he should have kept some of those envelopes since his integrity wasn't enough.

[johnmaso]

Next time, destroy all the checks and keep the cash for yourself.

"Because of the expired statute of limitations, he will not get any money from them"

Um noooo, he will not get any money from them because the morals and values at that pathetic excuse for a church HAVE EXPIRED!!!

[geechiguapo]

I woulda stfu and kept it to myself 😂💯

[puff]

You aint giving the man a reward then give him the money back!!!

[woody]

All that done was bring attention to money in the church to a tiranical bunch of thieves in wash.

[no-orwelliandystopia]

The church won't offer the man a reward for finding that all that cash? truly acting like the Christians they are

[mannyc]

Your reward was when you found it you should have stuffed the biggest toolbox you had full of envelopes then turned the rest in because this preacher at this church is no saint!

[robynboone]

Why should he get a reward for doing the right thing?

[teresae.]

He should have kept some or all the money instead of now asking for a reward. 🙄

[robertjeffcoat]

The guy didn't search for the money or actually solve the case. He happened to find it while he was working. Doing the right thing is the reward. I wouldn't ask for a reward not from church money. He could be blessed in ways he won't see coming.

[billchambersmarquez]

I would take that place apart brick by brick to see what else is hiding in the walls! U know their has to be more

[shirleywilliams]

he should have rewarded himself before he left the bathroom stall...💸💨💨💨🤭😒🙏 god forgive

[Justice]

Unexpected Financial Blessing... just not for the person that found it....

[HeatherRose]

Is there evidence like a video or witnesses that he actually found the money in the wall?
How was someone able to hide the envelopes in the wall? Why would a thief hide money and then not go back to retrieve it? What else is hidden in those walls?
