Plastic Donuts
Author: Jeff Anderson
Publisher: Multnomah
ISBN: 1601425287
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 130
Book Description
Once you see your gifts from God’s perspective, your giving will never be the same. When she was a toddler, Jeff Anderson’s daughter opened his eyes to how delighted God is with our gifts. She brought him a plastic donut from her play kitchen, and he was surprised by the intensity of his reaction. His delight in receiving this simple gift—and his daughter’s joy in giving it—led him to dig deeper. Anderson would not rest until he found the scriptural connection between our gifts and God’s heart. Plastic Donuts removes the awkwardness and uncertainty that often accompany discussions about giving. Now you can think differently—and biblically—about what and how you give. Your gifts can capture God’s attention and connect you more intimately with His heart. Plastic Donuts brings everyone—leaders and followers, teachers and learners—onto the same page.

The Importance of Tithes and Offerings
Author: Jacqui D. Williams
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1098049551
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 49
Book Description
As we operate in the law, order, and principles of God’s Word, we position ourselves to experience His best. In Malachi 3:10, God says, “and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.” Giving “tithes and offerings” is serious business, and I believe this is not only a practice for the Old Testament, but for the New Testament, as well as for today. We honor God when He is first place in our life. Sowing “tithes and offerings” is especially honorable when it is given from our first fruits and not our last fruits. Proverbs 3:9, says, “Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the first fruits of all thine increase:” In 1 Corinthians 14:40, it states, “Let all things be done decently and in order.” This lets us know that there is “order” expected even in our giving. In this book, I address whether “tithes and offerings” is a practice that should be honored today, and if so, what is the order according to God’s Word. I also discuss what I have learned through my life experiences, that has proven to me, obedience to God’s Word is far better than sacrifice. (1 Samuel 15:22)

Tithing After the Cross
Author: David a. Croteau
Publisher: Energion Publications
ISBN: 1631993143
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 96
Book Description
Some in the church find it very difficult to talk about money, but it's a subject that cannot be avoided. The church needs money to continue to function. Missionaries need money to carry the gospel. As a result, however reluctant we are to talk about it, we have to do so. And when we do so, we often generate more confusion and resentment than cash. Some churches require that members be tithers before they can take positions of leadership. This in turn can result in a sort of spying by one believer on another. How much do we each earn? Is our giving equal to 10% of our income? On the other hand there are those who discount tithing, and consider themselves tithers because they give two or three percent of their income. They may say that they "tithe" 3% of their income. But what exactly does the Bible teach about tithing and how does that apply to us today? Is there a way for us to become grace-filled givers? Can stewardship, giving, and financing the work of building the kingdom become a joy rather than a duty or a source of dissension? David Croteau has written at length on this topic before. In this volume of the Areopagus Critical Christian Issues series, he undertakes a brief examination of tithing, stewardship, and giving. He starts by asking just what the Israelites were called on to give by the scriptures. He then follows through the various arguments in favor of tithing as a law applicable to Christians and shows how these arguments fail. Finally, he discusses a basis for gracious, joyful giving as God directs each of us. In just 96 pages (including all the front matter) you'll find your understanding of Christian stewardship changed. You won't find here a license for apathy or selfishness. Instead, you'll find a challenge to discover and do God's will in your finances as in every other area of your life.
