Larry Robinson who has served as budget chairperson in his local church is a gentleman worth listening to when it comes to a discussion on Christian giving or tithing. More Than The Gift by Larry Robinson challenges Christians to examine just exactly what Christian giving is all about--Is it simply giving a ten percent of one's money, or is there more to it?
Robinson writes: "Too often a heart of worship seems missing from our giving. Christians give, but many give under the burden of obligation or for self-serving reasons. We give, but remain puzzled, uncomfortable, and/or uninformed. Something needs to change...The truth of the matter is that God is up to something special through the process of our giving."
Robinson focuses on three principles that unveil the purposes and plans God has for our giving:
God is interested in more than just the gift. God desires to use our giving as a tool to grow our relationship with Him and with each other.
Our giving is important because of what it reveals. Our attitude to the opportunity to give reflects the health of our relationship with God.
Our giving is important because of what it accomplishes. God uses our giving to fulfill His purposes for our relationship with Him and with each other bringing glory to His Name.
Your giving to God will become more meaningful after reading More Than The Gift.
