In the Creed we recite during every Divine Liturgy, we say, “…And was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate, and suffered and was buried; and the third day He rose again, according to the Scriptures…” God’s ultimate sacrifice of His Only Begotten Son is our constant reminder of his unwavering love for us. We must acknowledge this love by our prayers, our conduct, and our deeds. Tithing, sacrificial giving, or proportional giving is but one of the many expressions of worship through which we can demonstrate our commitment to Our Lord’s word. Compassionate stewardship is an attitude and a way of life.
