About the Tithing Calculator

Our Tithing Calculator simplifies the process of calculating your biblical contributions. Whether you calculate on gross or net income, this tool helps you determine exact amounts for your local church, missions, and charitable giving.

What is Tithing?

A tithe (from the Hebrew word ma'aser, meaning "tenth") is the biblical practice of giving 10% of one's income back to God. It is widely practiced in Christianity as an act of worship, obedience, and acknowledgement that everything we have comes from God.

β€œHonor the Lord with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all your crops; then your barns will be filled to overflowing...” β€” Proverbs 3:9-10

Gross vs. Net Income: How to Calculate?

Method Description Biblical Principle
Gross Income Calculating 10% on income before taxes and deductions. Giving off the "firstfruits" (Proverbs 3:9).
Net Income Calculating 10% on "take-home" pay after taxes. Giving from the "increase" or actual money received.

Note: The Bible does not explicitly specify "gross" or "net" in modern tax terms. This decision is a personal conviction between you and God.

Frequently Asked Questions

How to calculate tithe from salary?

To calculate tithe from your salary, typically take your total pay and multiply it by 0.10. For example, if your salary is $2,000, your tithe is $200. You can use our calculator above to adjust the percentage if needed.

How is tithe calculated?

Tithe is calculated as a percentage of your "increase" or income. While the standard is 10%, some believers choose to give more (offerings) or start with a smaller percentage and grow over time.

How much is tithe?

"Tithe" literally means "tenth". Therefore, the biblical amount is 10% of your income. However, in the New Testament, the emphasis shifts to generous, cheerful giving (2 Corinthians 9:7) rather than a strict legalistic percentage.

Should I tithe if I am in debt?

This is a common question. Many financial advisors and pastors recommend continuing to tithe as an act of trust, even while paying down debt, but it is ultimately a personal decision of faith.
