The other day my oldest little philosopher came up to me and asked what I was working on after she woke up from a nap. I told her I was working on a post for my website. “What’s the post about, daddy?” The post I was working on was about practical investing advice. To my less than ten year old, I simply said, “It’s about money.” We then discussed how we buy things, how we earn money, the purpose of a bank, and a lot of other essential money topics including how and why we tithe and give to charity.

She came away with the idea that money was a pretty important tool that we all need so that we can do what we want in life. However, I didn’t want her to come away with the idea that money is our idol or the end all be all. Even if you are not religious, I think that this concept is still important. Giving money comes in many different forms. It includes giving money to charitable causes outside the church. If you are religious and feel called to tithe, maybe this post will help you revisit the topic or start the conversation if you’ve never tithed regularly.
