The Baseline of a Blessed Life
What does it really mean to put God first with your money? The Bible teaches that how we handle our finances reveals what we value and trust. In this message, you’ll discover what the Bible says about tithing, why giving God the first matters, and how biblical principles can bring order to your finances and your life. Tithing isn't simply about giving money—it’s about putting God first and allowing Him to shape your heart, priorities, and decisions.
In this sermon at Impact Church, guest speaker Pastor Tauren Wells, pastor of Church of Whitestone in Austin, Texas, teaches how God’s principles, patterns, and promises reveal a different way to approach our money and our lives.
In this sermon, you’ll learn:
What the Bible really teaches about tithing
Why putting God first changes the way you handle money
Why the “first” matters when it comes to biblical giving
How tithing moves beyond a transaction and transforms your heart
What Scripture teaches about the firstborn, firstfruits, and first tenth
How biblical principles can help bring order to your finances and priorities
God doesn’t want to simply be somewhere on your priority list—He wants to be first. When your life is reordered around Him, your money becomes more than something you manage. It becomes an act of worship. The question isn’t only what you’re willing to give, but who sits at the center of everything you have.
