    The church is more than a social club. Why is it difficult for some people to fit in, and how can we build bridges?

    Contributed by Graham Kettle on Feb 25, 2024
     | 1,211 views

    Tithing can be a much misunderstood and often much abused subject as I have seen from so many televangelists. What is Biblical, New Testament tithing? An obligation under the Law or an act of grace? For me Scripture is clear. See if you agree.
