Dan Kight was at Southside this past weekend encouraging us in ways to make our small groups guest services more effective. He and his wife Vicki minister at the Overland Park Church in Kansas City.
He introduced a great way for us to tithe. Most churches emphasize that we should give 10% of our income (hence the word "tithe" -- "ten percent). He challanged us to tithe our most precious resource -- our time. He said that we should aim to give 10% of our time every week in doing "kingdom things".
He asks two questions: What impact would that have on our schedules? What effect would that have on the kingdom - if we all did that?
Try it this week. Add up the number of hours in the day. Mulitply by seven. You'll find that it's about the equivalent of one day. Hummmm. Now, that sounds familiar.
Tithe your time this week! See what happens! Report back.
