Just read a post on Tim Stevens’ blog about money management that I wish everyone would read. Here is a small excerpt concerning our subject matter from yesterday:
- Tithe–I really believe that God blesses those who tithe. I think he keeps the car running longer, the roof from leaking as soon as it would have, and He loves to sprinkle you with raises and added cash you didn’t expect.
- Give generously. The tithe is the minimum. We began our first year of marriage giving 10% of our income and then increased it every year until we got to 20%. The first 10% goes to the general fund at our church. The other 10% we use to support missionaries, give to new building projects at our church, and bless people who come into our lives.
There’s MUCH more to the full post, and it’s well worth your time to go check it out. Find it here.
