"Tithing" by Douglas Leblanc is not a book written from the authors perspective, but a collection of stories from other people and why they believe tithing is important and how tithing has affected their lifestyles. Through eleven different stories Leblanc wants you to see different perspectives of tithing and how it has positively affected people’s lives. Leblanc then wants you to think about the different stories and then to arrive at a conclusion on whether or not you should tithe.
“Tithing” did not affect me as strongly as other books that I’ve read in the series. The author doesn’t seem to pressure you into thinking that tithing is an issue that is right or wrong, but something that you should try for yourself and see if it works out for you. However, several good points were made and you are exposed to several different reasons and perspectives for tithing. The reasons and perspectives, I found to be beneficial and something that helps you better understand why you should tithe and the benefits of tithing. Overall I wouldn’t say it is a bad book; however I wouldn’t say it was a book that really spoke out to me and really affected me. If you are researching, studying, or are just interested about tithing, it would be a great book to read. My one point of caution however would be is that just like any other book you read, to filter everything through the Bible, as the Bible is infallible and incorruptible.
