Of course the guy says you should strive to give at least ten percent. But he also says they don't teach "tithing", per se. That's where I would disagree.

I agree, you give and God will bless, I think Driscoll is giving a balanced view, I like the fact that giving should be

• Cheerful
• Consistent
• Sacrificial

Anyone who practices this will always go beyond the minimum (which Driscoll says is 10%)

I think if the church as a whole would practice that, we would be even more blessed, and it will take away the argument from the naysayers.

True! It's all about trust.
