My Beliefs on Tithing
Iâm a Christian. I believe the Bible is Godâs Word. And today, my family tithes. But that wasnât always the case.
Early in our marriage, giving was inconsistent. $100 here. $50 there. Sometimes we remembered, and sometimes we didnât.
The more I studied Scripture, the more my perspective on giving changed. God doesnât need my money. Heâs God, and He can accomplish His work with or without it. But He invites us to give as an act of obedience, trust, and worship.
Everything we have ultimately comes from Him. The abilities we use, the opportunities we receive, and the income we earn are all things we can be grateful for. Tithing became less about checking a box and more about recognizing where it all comes from.
I believe generosity is about more than the money leaving our bank accounts. Itâs about the posture of our hearts, learning to trust God, and recognizing that what we have is ultimately His. Generosity isnât about what God gets from us. Itâs about what Heâs doing in us.
Iâd love to hear your perspective: Has your view of tithing or generosity changed over the years?
