Bible.com: Giving FAQs
Should I give to YouVersion instead of tithing to my church?
Thank you for your heart to support our mission of encouraging people to seek intimacy with God every day. Tithing is a biblical principle. Malachi 3:10 tells us to “bring the full tithe into the storehouse.” Tithe means 10% of our income, and the “storehouse” is the local church. We believe that our first step as fully devoted followers of Christ is to contribute a tithe to your local church. This is different from offerings, which are gifts over and above the tithe, given in areas that God is stirring us to support.
We would be honored if you would prayerfully consider giving an offering to YouVersion—over and above your tithe to your local church.
