LADIES’ DAY on October 5. Thanks to Cathy Atchison for planning this. 

M 

ost people don’t understand thing. To many

Chrisans it seems like some sort of country club

due. Another bill in the long list of monthly expenses. 

Giving is supposed to be an act of worship that draws

you closer to the heart of God. Then why is it that the

concept of thing, giving the rst 10% of one’s income,

has become so divisive in the church? Chrisans debate

quesons like: Is thing sll even required? Wasn ’t it an

Old Testament law? Didn’t Christ abolish the law with His

death and resurrecon? Should I the o the gross or net

of my income? Does God really expect me to the if I’m

struggling in my personal nances? I “the” my TIME to

the church. Isn’t that enough? 

These quesons all have the same recurring theme—

what’s the LEAST I can give and sll receive God ’s bless-

ings. When you debate these quesons, you totally miss

the point. Bibli cal generosity isn’t about giving the mini-

mum. It’s about surrendering it all to an all-powerful, all-

loving God. And to a God who GAVE everything in His Son

Jesus Christ. Randy Alcorn said it best: “Giving arms

Christ’s lordship. It dethrones ME and exalts HIM.” 

I used to write checks to my church that looked like

this $112.14. To the penny. Nothing more. Noth ing less.

“There’s my 10% God. Hopefull y that’s cover the upkeep

in Heaven unl my next paycheck. Now bless ME.” 

W hy I  Quit Tithing 

and W hy Y ou Should T oo by Larry Poole 

I didn’t get it. God didn’t need my money

ed proof that He was rst in my life. He wante

As I began to mature in my spiritual walk,

to make sense. EVERYTHING belongs to God.

trust Him with my nances, the more He can u

reveal His glory. The more I get to be a condu

miracles. The more my faith gets to be tested

And that’s why I quit thing. 

Don’t hear me wrong. I sll give the rst

income to God through my local church. I thin

great starng point. But I’ve started asking a

queson. A queson that’s radically changing

no longer, “How much should I give?” Instead

ed asking, “How much should I KEEP?” 

And I’m no dierent from you. I ’m an ave

I’m not a millionaire. I’m not expecng a wind

from a rich relave any me in the future. I ju

that my God is sucient to meet and EXCEED

needs. 

I believe God when He says, “Test me in t

if I will not throw open the oodgates of heav

out so much blessing that there will not be roo

to store it” (Malachi 3.10). 

Is it possible that you’re liming God withing? Maybe you’re obedient with the rst 10%

pletely unwilling when the Holy Spirit prompts

ther. Perhaps God is calling you to do more

than you’ve ever done before. 

Instead of being comfortable, maybe it ’s

to give in a way that ’s going to require faith A

probably won’t be easy. But it will be worth it

doesn’t just want your rst 10%. He wants yo

heart. 

 Honor the Lord with your wealthand with the best part of everything 

 you produce. Then He will fill your barns with grain and your vats will overflow with good wine.
