Should Christians Tithe? Understanding Biblical Giving in the New Testament
Is tithing still required for Christians today? In this episode, we explore what the Bible actually says about the tithe—and why the New Testament calls us to something even deeper. While the Old Testament introduces the concept of giving 10%, Jesus teaches that 100% of what we have belongs to God.
So how do we give in a way that honors Him? We dive into the heart behind generosity, the role of the local church, and how to move from obligation to cheerful, Spirit-led giving.
📖 Key Topics Covered:✔️ The origins and biblical definition of the tithe✔️ What the New Testament says (and doesn’t say) about giving✔️ Why generous, cheerful giving matters more than a set percentage✔️ The importance of supporting the local church first✔️ How giving reflects our faith, trust, and worship
💬 Discussion Questions:1️⃣ What's the difference between giving out of obligation vs. cheerfully?2️⃣ How does the idea that everything belongs to God shift your mindset?3️⃣ What role does faith play in how and where you give?
📝 Life Application:➡️ This week, prayerfully examine your giving habits. Are they rooted in trust or fear? Legalism or worship? Ask God to shape your heart toward joyful generosity and consider creating a consistent, intentional plan for giving.
