How many of you give a tithe and an offering...not only monetarily but also of your time?

Question

Do you give a tithe (10 percent of your time which would be 2.4 hours of your day) to God's work? Is this required of all good people to live a Godly life?

Answer 1

Not so much giving money - though I do to my Church and charities - but I give a large amount of time.

Answer 2

I give 10% of my check every 2 weeks. I also go to Wed night Bible class and Sun morning church service.

Some teach Sunday School, Usher, in the choir, etc so that adds more time.

It doesnt matter what you give. It's giving with a good heart and living a lifestyle that's pleasing to God. These are more important than anything!!

Answer 3

I do tithe montetarily - won't lie, I haven't always - and it's not always easy - but I did decide to do it and am sticking to it.

I am always more than willing to tithe and then some of my time - and fortunately have found a home church that has room for me to give as much of my time as I can and want to.

Answer 4

Time is important, and I do offer it. I play in a worship band that's 3 hrs of practice for 1/2 hr set/week, then I am a small grep leader in my CR ministry. I am also studying and growing in order to offer service to others later.

Answer 5

Oooooh, I do the monitary thing, but I don't think I've consistantly done the time thing - very interesting concept. That definitely something I'll have to add to my list of life goals.

Thanks

Answer 6

I give what "I" can afford, no you are not required to give anything, and I teach a Sunday School class every week....also Vacation Bible School...

We are to give with joy and thanksgiving.

Answer 8
