Kingdom Builders - Week 2: Why Tithe?

In the second message of our series called Kingdom Builders, Pastor Mel explains what the tithe is and why we should be faithful to do it. At Summit Church one of our core values is radical generosity. We believe God is radically generous and we want the world to see that in how we live and how we give. In a most general sense, scripture recognizes two types of giving: tithes and offerings. Tithing is a principle, not a law, and the tithe is made up of your first 10% of income. Offerings are above and beyond your tithe and are your response when God prompts you to give. Mel preaches through selected scriptures and shows us why the tithe is for today. We should tithe because God says the tithe is important, the tithe teaches us to honor God, and the tithe teaches us to trust God.
