Episode Synopsis

Tithing is a sensitive topic. Some churches believe that all believers and members must give 10% of their paycheck in order to be in good standing with God. This comes from a reading of Malachi 3:10...but is this a correct interpretation? What about the other times tithes were given in the OT. Are we supposed to obey the tithing commands from the Mosaic Covenant. Do we need to tithe? What is a tithe anyway? More on that later. Finally, how does God command His believers on this side of the cross to treat their money? How can we be, as Paul says, "cheerful givers."
DISCUSSION QUESTIONS:
1. Do you believe, either consciously or subconsciously, that a person should give a certain percentage?
2. Read Mark 12:41-44. In your giving, do you think you resemble the poor widow or the wealthy givers?
3. Do you give to a church or an organization? Why or why not?
