I had lunch with my TBM mom today and she mentioned that she needs to catch up on her tithing because she has been in the hospital for the last two months and didn't pay. Keep in mind, she almost died - me and all my siblings were called to the hospital in the middle of the night to say goodbye to her. Luckily, she pulled through and she just came home a couple days ago.
So of course, the first thing she is thinking about is how she's behind on her tithing on her SS check. My mouth kind of dropped and then I asked her why she would pay tithing on it - her and my dad paid tithing on their gross income for 45 years and paid into SS for 45 years and she should view it as a government savings account. Would you pay tithing on money in a savings account that you already paid tithing on?
Really got her thinking. And she was like, "You're right". Right now I'm enjoying my status as a closet non-believer because my TBM family will still take advice from me!
