What is tithing and offerings?
We are stewards of what God has given us, and we have the opportunity to give back to God and to bless others.
The tithe is a physical example of our trust in God. It is a matter of the heart, not about the amount but the principle of giving to him first. God is a giving God, and giving is one way for us to be like him.
The offering of time, talent and treasure is a blessing to give generously. It should and can give us joy to bless others.
"Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Do everything in love.."
1 Corinthians 16:13-14 ESV
