Will Jesus pay my rent? Because His yoke may be light, but my landlord's isn't.

Thats a bit of a strawman. Will religion pay your rent? Probably not. But focusing on a simple life around family and charity and not chasing material possessions or luxury might. Changing priorities from hip neighborhoods to family friendly neighborhoods may.

Even my best neighbors didn't let me sit in their house when I'm in danger of not affording rent. A "simple life" is more expensive than ever now.

And yes. odds are that those who are going to church already have the "simple life" covered. So be careful of selection bias.
