How Can I Tithe and Save in a Tough Economy?
It's rare for a day to go by where the economy and rising costs of living *aren't* featured in the news. Housing and education and food prices continue to be on the rise, and most of us are feeling it in our wallets and in our budgets.
This week on Trending Matt and Joe got a question from a Ridgepoint attender about how to tithe in such a tight economy. When budgets are already stretched by necessities, how can we also be generous to the church? How can we realistically hope to save when expenses feel so tight?
There are no easy answers, but Pastor Joe has some helpful principles to stick to, regardless of the size of our budgets. The Christian church has a history of being radically generous, and that's an admirable goal for us to also aspire toward.
