Giving, and the amount Christians should give, is a controversial topic. If you’ve been in the church for long, you’ve probably heard different opinions. And you may have your own thoughts based on your experiences up to this point. May I ask you a couple of questions?
First, maybe you have been told that Christians should give a tithe, but does the New Testament teach tithing? The word tithe is a noun meaning “tenth,” which is why many Christians think we should give ten percent. If you’ve been taught this, take a moment to consider whether New Testament verses cause you to think this way. I believe it’s clear that Christians are commanded to give, but they’re not commanded to give a tithe, which brings me to my second question.
Second, if you’ve believed that you must give a tithe, will you consider a different view if it is supported by Scripture?

Sin doesn’t just break lives—it distorts minds.
King Saul’s story shows how rebellion against God led to confusion, jealousy, and despair. But it also reminds us that true wisdom, peace, and clarity are found only when we walk closely with the Lord.
This message challenges us to examine our hearts and choose the wisdom that comes from obedience rather than the madness that flows from sin.

As our bodies age and weaken, it can be easy to lose heart. But Scripture reminds us that even as our outer selves are wasting away, our inner selves are being renewed day by day.
Learn how we can find strength, perspective, and hope when our physical strength fails — by fixing our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen and eternal.
