What is tithing?
Tithing is the practice of giving the first 10% of our income back to God. It’s a biblical principle that acknowledges God as our provider and helps support the mission and ministry of the church.
Why do we tithe?
We tithing as an act of faith and gratitude. It’s our way of putting God first, trusting Him with our finances, and investing in the work He’s doing in our community and beyond.
