Part of being a good steward, or manager, of what God has given us is represented in our gifts to the local church and to other ministries. At Cross Pointe, we encourage tithing by our faith family as an act of worship, glorifying God. Tithing is giving 10% of our income, the first portion of God's blessings, back to Him. Tithing is an act of obedience to God, an act of worship and it honors God. (See Genesis 14:20, Number 18:28, Deuteronomy 18:4 and Matthew 23:23).
