The Day The Church Stopped Giving

In Chapter Thirty-Six of Exodus, Israel upsized their giving with an “over-the-top” offering.  Fresh out of Egyptian bondage and responding to an appeal to support the construction of the tabernacle, they gave so much that they were restrained by their leaders from giving.  The means, motive, measure and model of their giving is a challenge to believers and churches today and is a powerful precedent for what constitutes authentic biblical stewardship.
