What does the Bible really say about money, tithing, and generosity?

In this episode of Deepen, Pastors Joby Martin, Ryan Britt, and Jonathan Vinke continue the conversation from week two of Neighbors to Nations, unpacking what it means to honor God with our finances.

From finding security and satisfaction in money to experiencing the freedom of biblical generosity, they explore why giving is about more than finances. It's about trusting God, surrendering our hearts, and putting Jesus first.
