Many and irritating are the sermons on tithing. It is a great shame that when it comes to a message on giving back to the greatest giver of all, we should squirm in our seat, or be in any way put off by the subject. But, all too often, a message on giving in the church, or tithing, is nothing more than a thinly veiled attempt to put a biblical veneer over a flat out guilt trip to meet the congregational budget. What does the Bible actually teach about how God wants us to deal with our finances? What should our response really be to God meeting our needs, providing for us and our families as He does? Do we tithe today at all? If we are supposed to give to God somehow, what is that somehow and how can we be sure? Here, in this small volume, are the answers to those questions and more. Here you can read a thorough, well laid out presentation of the obstacles to biblical giving, the Scriptural instruction on the subject, God's attitude, and the responsibility we have in our day. Avoid the pitfalls of bad or guilt-ridden teaching on tithing and let giving become the joyful, worshipful experience it is meant to be!
