Some Information about Tithing
Tithe: The word tithe means a tenth. To tithe is to give 10% of all we receive to a person, place or institution from which we have received spiritual nourishment. When discussing tithing, we sometimes are asked about giving to charity. We do not give to charitable organizations in place of a tithe. We give to God first, tithing to where we are spiritually nourished. Then, additionally, we give to the charitable organizations we choose to support.
Spiritual Nourishment: Spiritual nourishment is what feeds us, inspires us and affirms the Truth of who we are, divine creations of God.
