Re: Changes within UPC (recent)
I love giving to the work of God knowing that little bus kids will get a breakfast and a Bible lesson, evangelist will be helped, while they help my family (and me), missionaries around the world will have support to reach people that I will never see, people in jail will receive a Bible and hear the Apostolic message and the list goes on and on. Yes I tithe and give offerings because the work of God is bigger than just my family.

Re: Changes within UPC (recent)
You need not embrace the doctrine of tithing to love giving.

I actually disagree with the above statement because if you are holy, none of this matters.

Thank you. The last time I was at BK, I celebrated my happiness with a Whopper. God is good.
