045: Is Tithing Biblical?

Every church has a "tithes and offering" portion in their worship service, and it seems like pastors are always talking about "giving your money back to God in the form of a tithe" . . .  but have you ever stopped and asked the question, "Is tithing even Biblical?"

In today's episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller discuss this topic from both a Biblical and practical viewpoint, and at the end of this episode, they each share their opinions on if a Christian should or should not tithe. They even get into the question of "Should a Christian give to their local church?"
