Tithe
When we tithe, we're choosing to trust God with our finances.
Tithing is a biblical principle where God invites us to return the first 10% of our income to Him. We have witnessed God’s provision time and time again, and we believe He’ll do the same for you and your family when you prioritize Him in your finances.
“Honor the Lord with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all your crops; then your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats will brim over with new wine.”
Proverbs 3:9-10
