The land the church owned is where most of the money the church collected was from.

In 1378, the Catholic Church faced significant challenges that weakened its authority, including the Great Schism, where multiple claimants to the papacy emerged, and widespread corruption and moral decay among the clergy. Additionally, the rise of humanism and calls for reform highlighted the church's failings. However, the steadfast loyalty of many believers and the church's vast landholdings and wealth continued to provide a degree of stability and influence.

The bubonic plague weakened the power of the Roman Catholic Church in Western Europe by causing a decline in the number of clergy members and a loss of faith among the population due to the church's inability to stop the spread of the disease. This led to a decrease in the church's influence and authority during the outbreak.
