Many Christians are confused about tithes and offerings. They don’t know how much to give, where to give it, or what they should be giving. This podcast will discuss seven questions you can ask yourself before giving tithes and offerings, so you can make wise decisions with your money.
1. What are my motives for giving?
A common question for Christians to ask is how much they should tithe. Many preachers say to tithe your income or ten percent of your earnings. However, before you tithe your money, examining your motives is important. Your motives for giving are more important than how much you give.
God wants us to give out of love and obedience, not out of obligation or guilt. Biblical tithing was a legalistic act ancient Israel was obligated to do under the Mosaic Law.
As a New Testament Christian, you don’t tithe out of obligation, but you’re encouraged to give because you love God with all your heart!
2. Is there anyone else who should be involved in this decision?
It’s a good idea to involve others in your decision to tithe. This includes your spouse, if you have one, and your children and others at church. Discussing tithing with those closest to you can help you reach a consensus about what God is leading you to do.
Regarding tithes and offerings, ensure everyone is on the same page!
3. What is my current financial situation like, and how will this affect the amount of money I can give to God’s work?
Consider your current financial situation before paying tithes or giving offerings. Ensure your needs, such as housing, food, clothing, etc., are met first. Don’t tithe or give any offerings if it will create tension in your home because you’re struggling to meet the basic necessities of life!
God wants you to be a responsible giver!
4. How will the tithes and offerings be used?
Before you give tithes and offerings, ask church officials how the money will be used. Will it go towards funding the church’s ministries? Supporting missionaries or other outreach projects? Helping those in need locally or globally? Make sure you are confident in where your money is going before giving it away.
5. Is there any accountability for where my tithes and offerings go?
Before tithing to a church, ask about their accountability and transparency policies. This will ensure that your money is going to good use and not being mishandled by those in charge.
Church leadership should be willing to provide information about how the tithes and offerings are used, as well as any financial reports or audits, so you can rest assured that your donations are being put to good use.
If the leadership is unwilling to provide this information, consider another ministry you can support financially.
It’s important that you can trust your church with your money, so make sure they have accountability policies in place!
6. Does this church or ministry have a history of being trustworthy with finances?
Find out if the church or organization you are considering tithing to has a history of being trustworthy with finances. Unfortunately, there are many cases of churches mismanaging their money or mishandling donations.
If an organization does not have a good track record regarding financial dealings, it’s best not to give them your tithes and offerings.
If there aren’t any clear goals or projects outlined in their giving policy or you don’t see evidence of the tithes and offerings being put to good use, then look into giving donations to another church, ministry, or charitable organization.
You can visit websites such as CharityNavigator.org or GiveWell.org to find out if organizations are trustworthy with finances! This information will help you make wise decisions regarding tithing or giving charitably.
7. Is there anything in particular that I want them to do with these funds?
Consider what you would like to see your tithes and offerings used for. For example, helping to provide clean water, funding missionary work, or providing shelter for battered women?
If there are particular things you want your money to go towards, communicate this to the church leadership. This will ensure they know where to put your tithes or offerings so the money can be used as desired.
