We all have questions, don't we? Should we step down from leadership everytime we go through a difficult season?

EDIT: I guess the only real core doctrinal thing I disagree on is tithing, but I still give to support the church, and I think for a lot of people the number will be more than 10 percent. It's just that 10 percent is an arbitrary number and I don't think we should take scripture out of context to try and force the issue.

With this major of an issue yes I think you should go to your pastor and let him make the decision for you to stay in leadership or not.
