FAQs

Should tithe be from gross or net income?

Both options are acceptable. Some prefer gross (before taxes) as giving the best to God, others choose net. The decision is personal based on conviction and ability.

Is tithing mandatory for Christians?

Opinions differ among denominations. Some view it as a binding biblical principle, others see it as guidance for generous giving. The important thing is giving joyfully and generously.

Where should I give my tithe?

Traditionally given to the local church. Some divide it between church, charitable organizations, and those in need. The important thing is that it goes to God's work and serving others.

What if I cannot give the full 10%?

Start with what you can give joyfully and faithfully. God looks at the heart, not the amount. You can start with a lower percentage and increase gradually as your financial situation improves.

Do non-monetary donations count?

Giving includes time, talents, and service as well. However, financial tithing has special importance in supporting the church and its ministries. Both complement each other.
