Federal reserve notes as we know is not money. It was “money” prior to 1933 before the dollar was taken off the gold standard. Absorbing all of the gold and silver only to begin issuing an internal revenue script by way of government decree. Which the constitution prohibits the government from printing its own “money” . With the support of these major points I must ask how is giving a worthless piece of Federal property to a organization like a church be valuable if it weren’t in fact contracted with the state to do business for the state? And how does a FEDERAL RESERVE NOTE equate to land and animals and generosity according to the text in the Torah about tithe?

I was born a Muslim in Iraq. I was worried and depressed, sitting and looking at the Tigris River in my city.Jesus' face appeared to me in the water and told me. "Son, you're not alone" And now I'm a Christian, and I pray every day at the edge of the river.Thank you Jesus for this grace. I'm not alone right now. Jesus is with me.✝🙏

When I think back to the time I was making more money than I ever had, it sickens me that I wasted it all on alcohol. I lost everything. That was rock bottom. I thank God for getting through my thick head in 2019 at age 64. I still struggle financially, yet God continues to provide. It is getting better and better each month. I’m working to become debt free. Praise Jesus!
So good. This is my understanding. I started building businesses at 18. Met my wife at 21. I did very well for myself, we traveled the world, and had everything people think of as wealth. Then I started to feel the pressure God was placing on my meteoric rise. My wife wasn't happy at any point during our marriage. I purposely disengage from making more money to try to help get her through this. I prayed to God to give or take away at his choice to help us. He took it all away, and I mean 99% took it away. Then she couldn't take it anymore, she didn't mind a rich husband, just refused to be poor with me. She filed for divorce last year 2022. I'm saddened that it happened, but I take joy in Gods plan. It certainly made me a better person, I still pray that my exwifes life is also improved by Gods actions.

I was sad but now I know how much God loves me and he gives me joy! I was a sinner, lost in the world, trying to find meaning to the life I had and now I live for Christ 🤍 I was washed by his blood and all things are new. May you continue your walk with the lord until we move on to the next life. The grass IS GREENER ON THE OTHER SIDE. Hallelujah! To God be the glory! Forever! Amen!

Yes! 🙌 I remember a couple called to live on 10%. We were called by the Lord to take in a family of Asian refugees. It was supposed to be a family of 4, but it was 6. We had 5 kids at that point (2 were adopted). Well, God said to do it, so we did. But no one at church felt we should be taking in these foreigners. ..immigrants, but God told us to, and His Word backed it up. Well, one day all we had left to eat was soy sauce! We were told to take them to DSHS to sign up for food stamps. We waited 6 hours and only got an appointment for 4 weeks later! I asked what we were going to do until then? They said coldly it wasn't their problem, try the food banks. I had never heard of a food bank! It was late, and my husband was due home from work, so our VW van full of refugees and i headed home. We had not eaten since 6 am. I could barely fight back the tears. I prayed outloud, "Dear Jesus, this will be interesting to see how you pull this off!" The Asian lady repeated, "Dear Jesus." She barely spoke any English, so that surprised me! When we got home, the remainder of our families poured out of the house yelling and carrying on. I thought something awful must have happened, but no, it was happy chatter in English and Chinese! Someone had come and left $200 on our dining room table! No one could say who it was. I was crying, praising God, when a large grocery truck pulled up. They started emptying it into our home. It completely filled our freezer with meat. We had become vegetarians after reading a book, i think about 5 years prior, Diet for a Small Planet...but God told Peter to eat what was normally not kosher, i guess we could take the blessing and be grateful! They brought every sort of groceries you could imagine. There was not enough room for it all! Days later, we did find out who had heard the LORD'S call to help. It was a very wealthy couple God called to live on 10% of their income. At 10%, they were still extremely wealthy and more than generous! They told us their story. Their wealth just kept growing after that decision! They gave even more than 90%! Honestly, they reminded me of the Beverly Hillbillies! I am probably imagining it, but i remember their huge car with bull's horns on the front and a weird musical horn. They had deep southern accents (were were about as far north as you could get), and she wore a fur coat all the time that was just odd looking. They sort of giggled through every conversation, too. But they so loved and trusted the Lord. I only remember seeing them one time in church. After that, people started to bring clothing and other things this family so needed for a new start. Part of their family died getting out of Viet Nam in horrific helpless ways. Their happy world was gone overnight. They lived in terrible conditions in a camp for two years before World Relief rescued them, and many others. But they were grateful for the camp. The horrors they had encountered at the Fall and later...others came from Cambodia a few years later with stories that made Viet Nam's horrors pale in comparison. Anyhow, if we obey God's call, no matter the cost, He honors it. We fought fear, and other issues that came up just due to cultural differences and living so many together. It was a real test of our hearts every day, but it was an incredible faith builder for all of us. Not everyone became Christian, but that one lady did. God was glorified. That was so many years ago. I am a bit elderly now, but it is one of many cherished memories walking with the Lord. This reminded me of that. It is such an interesting life trusting and walking with Him! Sometimes, not so easy, but always blessed! I am forever grateful!

I am a Reformed Evangelist Seminary graduate from Indonesia, and hearing Bible Project ever since I enroll the seminary 5 years ago. Today I'm listening to this as I am being assigned to do my full time 1yr internship in a local church. I really resonate with this message as my husband is building his own business and we give away to local ministry/schools around 20% above 10% tithe we offer to church and we use around 10% more of our both income for the weekly offering on Sunday Service. Though we seem to never see our retirement soon, we slowly able to buy the things we needed and see God's provision through each step of our lives. Also upon hearing this podcast episode this morning, I can't help but thanking God that with the technology we have today, I could have access and was educated enough that I could get to hear something as fruitful as this in a language that is not even spoken by my parents. Keep on making more episodes, Bible Projects! God bless your team and regards from Indonesia 🇮🇩
The correct amount to give to God, is simply "everything". ✨️
Wow…. Wouldn’t it be great to be known as radical givers in the Kingdom of God rather than be known by our “membership” in churches? I related to this message so well. Many thanks for radically giving of your time, knowledge and wisdom guys 🙏🏾❤️
It was absolutely mind blowing and now I feel like MY life is about to change because of what God has allowed this episode to do to open up my eyes. Very amazing
Thank you so much for sharing this. I have been so blessed. I am Mary from Ghana and my career after college started quite rosy, got a full PhD Scholarship and I was living the life that most of my peers desired. Through Marriage, I followed God’s purpose and made the decision to leave academia. This decision hasn’t been the easiest though it has given me the opportunity to become more kingdom conscious and to put first the Kingdom of God. I have always felt distraught with how my life has been especially financially even though I know deep down that allowing God order my steps is the best decision ever. Listening to this just helped me solidify my convictions and strengthened my faith. I trust God to order my steps career-wise where I am not just focused on surviving like most people in my country but truly living. I have time to do the things that matter (fellowship, discipleship, evangelism) while still doing meaningful work.

I love this story as someone who sought an engineering degree and then ended up getting a PhD in Engineering Education because of my love for working with youth. I invested a 5-figure loan to build a turnkey virtual Christian University, thinking it was my way to leave a legacy in the world. Turned out the "high quality curriculum" was nonexistent and the "world class learning management system" was incomplete/insufficient. However, I know God is in the midst of it all and lives will be transformed through the adjustments and updates we're making to make this work. This message was on time because it has helped reassure me that the money invested, though for a noble endeavor, is all for God's purposes anyways. I'll keep faithfully trusting God and will stop seeking the 6-figure salary so I can get more for myself and my family. I'll focus on generously giving for God's mission.

This made me cry. Thank you people of Bible Project for providing us such amazing stories centered on God. You have no idea on how much you help people live their best lives with Christ with the content you put out. You guys are surely a great example of God’s cities on the hill. I’ll try my best with God to let His light shine through me.
This was so good, I’ve always given, my family are givers, my mom really gave her life for us five, my elder Half brother Mike often gave to keep the family going. We had different last names but he never treated me different if anything he treated me better. I have given and my wife have given but to be honest it hasn’t felt like it once did. I realized that as I’ve gotten older and there isn’t a lot in retirement and there are things I can’t do for my kids that I want to, that I’ve become somewhat fearful. We were very financially challenged growing up so I am amazed at the provision in my life and I don’t regret giving but more along the lines of I could have done more if I wasn’t trying to earn others love or approval. It’s by faith we can do anything that is not inherently selfish. This is a great refresher. Remembering Hebrews 13: 1Continue in brotherly love. 2Do not forget to love the foreigners, for in doing so some have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it. [Gen. 18 & 19] 3Remember those who are imprisoned, as if imprisoned with them, and those who are mistreated, because you+ also are in the body.
This to me felt like a modern biblical story. You two are modern authors writing new chapters of how God works through people. God bless you 🙏
Please, do not stop these stories. These testimonials are powerful, not onoy for the one that needs salvation, but for all humanity, christians or not. THIS EPISODE HAS TO HAVE MORE VIEWS!
This is one of my favorite and revolutionary episodes! I definitely found the book and recommend it to so many people, although it seems to deaf ears. Money is so hard to talk about to people, yet it doesn’t have to be a hard topic, it could be a God honoring, joyful topic.
Please, do more podcasts like this. It it is helpful to see Theology expressed in practical ways, by people who have been walking, and been challenged by God. Thank you. This really helped me on the last step of a difficult decision.

This story fits aptly to the season of life I am in.

Thank you so much for this video. I have learned so much listening to this podcast. It reminded me when I use to give to charities and ministries who labor in God’s field; I’ve kind of fell off from giving and took some years to focus on myself and what I wanted. Honestly, I didn’t get very far on my financial goals. Listening to this podcast it reminds me of the contrast I lived of when I use to spend as a giver and when I would set financial goals just as John did in his testimony. The truth is that I experienced more happiness and joy as a giver than setting financial goals that never happened as hard as I tried. There is a higher blessing in giving with love; God honors that. The cheerful giver 2 Corinthians 9:6-8 God Bless everyone!

This was a really interesting and captivating listen!! Thank you so much for the amazing interview and storytelling. Definitely had a couple breakthroughs while listening …
this was an absolutely beautiful episode. I truly hope that you will make more stories like this on your site because it was deeply meaningful to me. Thank you.
This is a wonderful episode, so insightful! This should be a required video for all high school students
Thank you so much for holding space for this exceptional conversation. I feel led by the Holy Spirit to your channel and to this podcast episode in particular because he has been giving me the joyful revelation of the giver. This confirms it and I’m in awe at the divine synchronicities between my experience and Jon and Greg’s paradigm shift. It’s truly amazing how God works. I’m so excited to walk in increasing faith with regards to giving for the kingdom. Praise God!
You guys knocked it out of the park with this one! I loved hearing how God transformed these men's lives. More stories like this would be a welcome addition to the amazing teaching and scripture exploration the Bible Project already does.

Yes, more content like this please!! This was so moving and inspiring
I am literally Crying while Listening, Love their Story!
Long time listener. One of the best episodes from you guys!
Thank you for touching my heart and mind with this interview ❤! Sending you all prayers and peace 🙏! God bless
What a blessing listening to this podcast.
Thank you for your obedience and a great lesson for the rest of Elohim's Children!
This was so good! I have been struggling with t”Tithing.This has definitely opened my heart and I am starting to hear my questions answered!
Oh what a podcast. Deep change in understanding! More of these stories please! 👏🏻
Definitely tell more stories like this ! Great format ! Bless y’all !!
This was such an incredible listen, probably my favourite yet. The richness and creativity of the storytelling was incredible, Jon is such a savant in crafting an engaging story and just asking the most straightforward questions. More than the style of this episode, the story itself was so impactful that my wife and I sat down and looked at our “spreadsheet” and asked God how can we flip our paradigm from asking how much more can we earn, save or spend but to how much more can we give! It’s only the beginning but we already feel those nudges from the Holy Spirit moving in our lives. Thanks BP team! Blessings as always 👌🙏💸

Thank you @bibleproject. It was such a refreshing way to view tithing and the stories were so inspiring.
This story was amazing. So moving and inspiring. I appreciate everything you teach and share with us. I have learned SO much more about the Bible and Jesus since following your channel and using your app. Thank you so much for all the teachings you provide.
Thinking about how much should I keep instead of how much should I give because everything is HIS.. changes the whole perspective of giving 😇😇
I loved this! Thank you to Greg and John for obeying the LORD and for sharing such a wonderful testimony. I couldn’t help but cry near the end there. Jesus challenges us and changes the heart in such a compassionate and wonderful way! He is such a good Father!
Beautiful! Thank you for this amazing podcast!
Yes, please make more episodes like this. Was so blessed by this message and story...God is so good. Thank you for all your hard work!
More stories like this please! So encouraging and challenging

Jesus told stories but you're ignoring them. Read Matthew 25 to start with.

I'd love to hear more like this from the Bible project! Very thought provoking and incredible testimony.
Wow how this podcast touched my life. Thank you , from South Africa
Full transparency. I judged this podcast based on the first few seconds I heard. 😂 But I feel God prompted me to go back and listen, but I delayed… twice. I finally relented and listened to it this morning. IT WAS SUCH A BLESSING! ❤
WOW. Loved this SO much. We need more authentic, honest, wrestling-included conversations & stories like this. Especially in regards to money/career... two interconnected areas that people (including believers) really struggle to navigate and steward in the ways God calls them to! My husband and I can relate to this story a lot in terms of our own finances and career decisions. We really learned in the past 2 years, especially after committing the biggest amount of money we ever have to our local church, (including through a Journey of Generosity, which originates from Generous Giving!) that at the end of the day it's not even about how much you give, it's your heart and faith in engaging honestly with God about it - and faithfully obeying him in whatever he tells you to do, even if it doesn't make logical human sense. And it's worth it every time. God is so good and faithful!!! Thank you to the team for taking the time to produce this. I'm sure it wasn't easy, but it truly blesses and ministers to so many!!
Jon Collins, thanks for this. Awesome work. Please keep it up
I thoroughly enjoyed the transformations of these individuals and this whole talk..thank you Bible Project
