First and Best: Week 3 — Will You Do It Cheerfully?

What if tithing isn't primarily about what God wants from you, but what God wants for you? In Malachi 3, God challenges His people to trust Him by putting Him first with their resources and promises that their faithfulness will bring blessing. Tithing isn't a promise of getting rich or a transaction with God—it is a practice that teaches us to trust God as our provider, transforms our relationship with money, and allows us to invest in things that have eternal significance. When we give God our first and our best, we discover that generosity is ultimately for our benefit.
