Should Christians still tithe? And why do people lose their minds when a pastor wears a nice watch?In this episode, PF, Kenneth, and Esther tackle one of the most divisive topics in church culture — money, tithing, and what pastors actually deserve to earn.PF gets vulnerable about his own lifestyle, reveals he works 80 hours a week on 5 hours of sleep, and explains why he'll never apologize for owning a Rolex. The conversation digs into the theology behind tithing — Old Covenant law versus New Covenant freewill giving — and why so many Christians are confused about what the Bible actually teaches on the subject.PF breaks down why tithing was originally about food (not money), why Malachi 3:10 is the most misquoted verse in church, and what giving should actually look like for believers today.But this isn't just theology. The crew gets real about church operations — from a $50,000 emergency HVAC replacement to why pastors are among the most underpaid professionals in America. PF shares why pastoral suicide rates are alarming, and makes the case that the laborer is worthy of his wages.In this episode:• Why tithing as we know it isn't actually a New Testament command• PF's honest take on pastor compensation and lifestyle scrutiny• The $50K HVAC story: what it really costs to run a church• "Serving God is not a sentence of poverty" — why PF won't apologize• Old Covenant vs. New Covenant: what the Bible actually says about giving• Why pastors are underpaid, underloved, and burning outTIMESTAMPS00:00 - Cold Open: The Pastor's Tattoo Controversy02:00 - Introduction: Kenneth, Esther & PF04:00 - Should Christians Judge Their Pastors?07:00 - "Teachers Will Be Judged More Strictly" — James 3:110:00 - The Tithing Question: Old Covenant vs. New Covenant14:00 - Malachi 3:10: The Most Misquoted Verse in Church?18:00 - Tithing Was About Food, Not Money22:00 - New Testament Giving: Freewill, Not Mandatory26:00 - Why Do People Get Mad at What Pastors Own?30:00 - PF's Rolex: "I Work 80 Hours a Week on 5 Hours of Sleep"34:00 - "Serving God Is Not a Sentence of Poverty"37:00 - The $50,000 HVAC Story: What Running a Church Actually Costs40:00 - Why Pastors Commit Suicide: Underpaid and Underloved44:00 - The Laborer Is Worthy of His Wages47:00 - Prosperity Gospel vs. Honest Compensation50:00 - How Should Christians Give Today?53:00 - Closing Thoughts: Give Cheerfully, Not Under Compulsion

Here in Deuteronomy, God's law concerning the tithe was clarified and explained. In addition to the initial tithe that went to the Levites, we also learn of two additional tithes: a festival tithe to support all Jews on the three … Continue reading →

Tithing is a direct response to the Person and presence of God.

Treasures and Trust | All In In Treasures and Trust, we look at Exodus 35 and Matthew 6 to understand why God calls His people to give. Giving is not about funding a project. It is about surrendering control, declaring trust, and investing in what lasts beyond this life. This message challenges listeners to examine their priorities, reconsider their affections, and take a step toward faithful kingdom generosity. Key Insight: Generosity is not about God needing resources. It is about shaping our trust. Tithing is a starting point that trains the heart to put God first. What we prioritize financially reveals what we truly worship. Faith grows when we step beyond comfort and choose obedience. Investing in God's kingdom has eternal impact beyond temporary possessions.

Is your view of God big enough to handle your bank account? In this powerful message from the "Pathways" series, Dr. Roger Patterson dives into 1 Chronicles 29 to explore the profound connection between our worship and our wealth. Many of us live under the stress of "ownership," clinging tightly to what we have, only to find ourselves in a cycle of lack and anxiety. Dr. Patterson challenges us to shift our mindset from owner to steward, recognizing that everything we have—our time, our talent, and our treasure—belongs to God first. Drawing from the example of King David and the warnings of the Prophet Malachi, this sermon reveals how joyful, sacrificial giving isn't something God wants from you, but something He wants for you.  In this sermon, you'll discover: The Five Principles of Joyful Worship: Why true joy begins by seeing God exactly as He is.  Breaking the "Curse of Greed": How tithing shifts your perspective from what you lack to how God provides.  The "Multiplier" Effect: Why God's math is different than ours and how He rewards faithfulness.  Leaving a Legacy: The responsibility of older generations to model generosity and younger generations to step out in faith.  "Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."  If you are ready to break the cycle of financial chaos and experience the peace that comes with trusting God's provision, this message is for you.

Tithing is directly tied to God's plan for His Kingdom, on earth as it is in heaven. Care for the poor, the sick, education and social programs were never meant of government control!

Jesus preaches more about giving generously than about tithing. Living through New Testament times gives us the freedom to give freely and generously to the Lord's work so that His house may be a thriving place of worship.

Caleb Froedge discusses Proverbs 3:9-10—“Honor the LORD with your possessions, and with the firstfruits of all your increase; so your barns will be filled with plenty, and your vats will overflow with new wine.”

Money Talks is a series exploring a godly perspective on financial health. For many people, money is one of the biggest sources of stress, anxiety, and uncertainty. A lack of confidence, mounting pressure, and fear about the future leave countless people feeling overwhelmed and stuck. Over the coming weeks, we'll be opening up what the Bible says about money—our mindset, our priorities, and how we steward the resources God has entrusted to us. Scripture reminds us to pay attention to the state of what we've been given, recognising that wealth is temporary, but wisdom lasts. This series is about bringing hope where there's anxiety, clarity where there's confusion, and freedom where poor financial management has created fear. Through biblical teaching, pastoral insight, and prayer, we'll look at contentment, putting God first, wise stewardship, and living a life of unusual generosity—the kind of life that reflects God's heart for each of us. Whether you feel confident with money or completely overwhelmed by it, Money Talks is an invitation to face finances with faith, wisdom, and freedom. To continue the series Lee Brown shared a message titled 'From tipping to tithing'. Catch up on this great message here.

In this video, Christian Barrett unpacks the 2026 State of Discipleship study from Lifeway Research and what it reveals about spiritual formation in U.S. churches today. According to the research, average churchgoers are barely passing on key discipleship characteristics, and many churches lack intentional plans for forming mature disciples. The discipleship deficit is real, and pastors across America feel it. This video explores what the deficit means for believers, pastors, and the future of the church in America, and why discipleship can't be assumed without intentional structures and community.

Tithing is a practical way to put God first and train your heart to actively participate rather than passively receive. It builds discipline, creates a shared culture of giving, and frees leaders to lead without hesitation. Over time it forms a testimony in your life, strengthens your spiritual confidence, and invites God's active involvement in your finances.

Few topics divide opinion in the church like money. But what if much of what we've been taught about giving isn't truly biblical? In this eye-opening episode, host Catherine welcomes Bible scholar and award-winning author, Clifton Payne Jr., to set the record straight on what the Bible really says about money, tithing, and generosity. They cut through decades of confusion and misinterpretation, addressing the guilt-driven giving, prosperity promises, and toxic church culture that have warped how Christians view their finances—and God's character. Clifton Payne Jr. reveals little-known truths from scripture (including the fact that there were actually three different tithes in ancient Israel, not just one!) and explains how biblical principles of stewardship are often misunderstood or misapplied today. What You Will Discover in This Episode: The deep mistrust many Christians have toward churches when it comes to money—and how church scandals, manipulation, and legalism fuel that distrust. Surprising discoveries like the three biblical tithes, special rules for ancient Israel, and what Jesus actually teaches about taxes, tithing, and giving. Why tithing is a model—not a requirement—for modern believers, and how generosity should flow from gratitude rather than obligation. The crucial principle of "first fruits": why giving God our best and first, not our leftovers, directly impacts the spiritual life of our families. The freedom found in New Testament giving, where the heart matters far more than the amount, and how generosity can be an antidote to materialism. Powerful stories—like the unforgettable account of Otzi, an African woman whose tiny, sacrificial gift became the greatest offering in the eyes of God. The conversation is both practical and pastoral, exploring how to talk about money with your kids, build healthy giving habits, and reclaim joy in generosity—even if you’ve been wounded by church abuse around this issue in the past. About the Guest:Clifton Payne Jr. is the author of What the Bible Really Says About Tithing and Giving: It's Different Than You Think, a book that has earned recognition from both the American Bookfest and International Book Awards. Drawing on years of pastoral ministry and biblical scholarship (including studies at Hebrew University in Jerusalem), Clifton untangles scripture from tradition, helping listeners return to the heart of God in their finances. Key Takeaways for Listeners: Don’t start with guilt or pressure—start with prayer and let giving flow from what God puts on your heart. Giving first is a spiritual discipline that breaks the grip of materialism and invites God’s faithfulness into your life. Teaching kids to give as a first priority (not last, as our culture encourages) will shape their lifelong habits and trust in God. Generosity has enormous power to heal wounds, restore faith, and transform communities when practiced in freedom and love.

What happens when the foundations of our lives are shaken?   In this message from Psalms 11:3, we explore the foundation of generosity and why tithing matters for believers today. This teaching shows that generosity is not about pressure or guilt, but about honoring God, trusting Him as our source, and building on a firm foundation. We cover: Why tithing is foundational Stewardship versus ownership Firstfruits, honor, and obedience How generosity aligns our hearts with God's purposes This message is for anyone taking next steps, feeling stuck, or seeking deeper alignment with God. Generosity is not about money. It is about lordship, trust, and obedience.

Spiritual Discipline Sunday: Tithing | Pastor Gary Smith by City of Life Church

A few weeks ago, we asked our listeners to respond with comments to this: Name something that completely changed things for you when coming from a traditional or legalistic-based religious mindset compared to a greater knowledge of the gospel of grace. For those who have experienced such a journey, the differences are nothing short of amazing (and exciting). We are just getting around to sharing those responses while briefly discussing them with our 'expert commentary.' :) This week includes the topics of: -Tithing demands. -The "requirement" to convert family and friends by talking about Jesus with everyone all the time. -Feeling the obligation to pray before every meal. -The need to regularly do penance. --Available on Amazon - "Clash of The Covenants: Escaping Religious Bondage Through the Grace Guarantee" https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0713ZSKY7

Have you ever felt the weight of religious obligation crushing your spirit? In a powerful message challenging traditional views on tithing, Pastor Phil reveals why LifePoint Church takes a grace-centered approach to giving. Through fresh insights from Leviticus to Corinthians, he unpacks how Jesus transformed giving from a legal requirement into an expression of faith and trust. Breaking free from the rigid 10% rule, Pastor Phil shows how true generosity flows not from guilt or compulsion, but from hearts transformed by grace. Don't miss this liberating message that will revolutionize your understanding of biblical giving and deepen your walk with God.

Bob and Shawn examine why generosity is such a central theme in Scripture and why it has quietly faded from many church conversations. Drawing from passages like Malachi 3:10, Proverbs 3:9–10, and Acts 20:35, we explore how tithing is not about obligation, but about trust, worship, and acknowledging God as the true owner of all we have. The discussion also unpacks the deeper purposes of giving—breaking selfishness, meeting real needs, advancing the Gospel, and reflecting the heart of Christ. Listeners are challenged to move beyond a purely cash-based mindset and consider giving through time, talents, assets, and planned generosity, always guided by prayer, Scripture, and godly counsel.

Tithing isn't a side note in Scripture. It runs through the covenants, from Abraham's promise, to Moses' process, to Jesus' covenant that gives us the power to obey and then to share the blessing. Tithing isn't merely an Old Testament command; it is clearly addressed in the New Testament.

In this episode of More to the Story, I sit down with Dr. David A. Croteau, professor of New Testament, to discuss his book Urban Legends of the New Testament: 40 Common Misconceptions. We explore how context, history, and Greek often get overlooked, leading to popular misinterpretations of Scripture. From the Gospels to Revelation, David shares insights on correcting these “urban legends” with careful exegesis—equipping listeners to read the Bible more accurately.

In this episode of The Leader's Notebook (Ep. 296), I invite you into one of the most powerful yet often overlooked truths in Scripture—what God is really like. From John 1:16–18, we see that Jesus is the full revelation of the Father, and what He reveals is not distance, anger, or reluctance, but grace upon grace. Moses brought the law, but Jesus came to show us the generous, giving, sacrificial heart of God. The Word became flesh so we could see clearly that God's nature is grace multiplied by grace. This message calls us beyond theoretical faith into a life shaped by generosity, forgiveness, and joyful surrender. Grace is not merely something we receive; it is the very life of God expressed through us. When we understand how completely we are forgiven, loved, and welcomed, we are freed to live boldly, give freely, and follow Christ wherever obedience leads. That is the adventure of real Christianity—and it begins with knowing the Father as He truly is. – Dr. Mark Rutland Chapters (00:00:03) - The Leaders Notebook(00:00:28) - John 1:8-9(00:04:38) - What is at the Heart of Christianity?(00:12:03) - Living a Life of Grace(00:17:02) - The Joy of Generosity(00:20:31) - Tithing(00:23:47) - God's Grace and Truth(00:28:54) - Adventures in the Life of Grace(00:32:29) - The Real Adventure of Love and Mercy(00:35:18) - The Leader's Notebook

Hey friends! Kaleb and I are so excited to kick off 2026 with this episode! Kaleb and I sat down and had a really honest convo about where we crushed it last year… and where we definitely did not
