Tithing: Test Me in This by Douglas Leblanc

I received this book from BookSneeze (formerly Thomas Nelson Publishers) and was hoping that, while this isn’t my usual type of book, it would interesting enough to hold my attention.

This is a small book and I was grateful for that. While the stories were, at moments, interesting on the whole I felt a little out of my league throughout the book. And I almost felt ashamed at times because I’ve been a Christian my entire life and still had no clue what references to people, ideas and places meant. It’s not a book that is easy to read or one that can be easily read in one sitting.

I did take some good insights away from reading this book, however. But mostly it was reinforcement from what I’ve been taught. I remember a sermon I listened to a while back that spoke on tithing and how God uses us as a funnel to give. The wider you open the funnel the more He blesses you with the resources to give. I remember being inspired by the story and there were several places in this book I was reminded of it.

I was definitely challenged to open myself up more – I just wish it would have been a bit more personal of a writing style instead of reading a documentary type book about the act of tithing.
