The tithe

"The Tithe" by Elmer Bryan Stewart is a discussion about the practice of giving ten percent of one's income to the church. The book examines why tithing is important based on historical and religious writings. Stewart examines how churches handle money today and suggests that sticking to the principles of tithing could allow the church to improve how it shares its message and supports good causes. He mentions that theological schools may be partly to blame for issues with church finances. Stewart argues that if ministers and church members know and follow structured tithing practices, the church's work could be greatly improved.
