Should Christians TITHE?

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2299097/fan_mail/new] In this episode, the history of Christian tithing is fully explored and its Biblical claims examined.  Statistics quoted in the episode come from The Religion Business, a 7-part investigative docuseries that exposes a growing problem in the nonprofit and religious sector—lack of transparency and oversight.
