What does the Bible say about giving?

Be sure to set aside a tenth of all that your fields produce each year. Deuteronomy 14:22

Yours, O LORD, is the kingdom; you are exalted as head over all. Wealth and honor come from you. 1 Chronicles 29:11-13
Honor the Lord with your income, with the first fruits of all your crops. Proverbs 3:9-10
Jesus said, "I tell you the truth, this poor widow has put more into the treasury than all the others. They all gave out of their wealth; but she, out of her poverty, put in everything, all she had to live on." Mark 12:41-44
Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work. 2 Corinthians 9:7-8

What does our church teach about tithing?

Tithing is a simple act of obedience to be used in our spiritual growth process.
The word "tithe" means one tenth (1/10) and it refers to honoring God by giving the first 10% of one's possessions to Him.
Giving is an act of worship, and worship is the expression of our love relationship to God.
The spiritual discipline of giving our possessions and income to the Lord through His church is a source of great joy.
The best way to become a tither is to start tithing - then you will discover the importance it brings to your Christian life.
When we bring our tithes, we are saying that God owns it all anyway.
The simple truth is that God can make it without our money, but we can't make it without His blessing that comes from giving.
