In this opening message of the "Generosity" series, Pastor Josh explores the biblical principle of tithing and what it reveals about the condition of our hearts. Using a practical apple illustration to demonstrate the concept of "first fruits," he explains that giving a tenth of our increase is not about a financial requirement, but about honoring God as our primary source and provider. Drawing from the examples of Abraham and Jacob, as well as teachings from the Old and New Testaments, the message challenges us to move past fear and selfishness to experience the spiritual freedom that comes from trusting God with every area of our lives—including our finances.
