This is where church indoctrination can be very harmful to people of low to moderate income. If you are low income, pretty much every cent is going to essentials. And there are community food pantries and diaper banks that don't make inquiries about your religious status.
If you are moderate income, then the 10% is needed for emergencies and also just to have a decent life (i.e. to pay a cable bill or to go on vacation.)
No one should be making major sacrifices to tithe to a rich church.
