About this episode

Andrew McNair discusses the heart behind tithing and the difference between reluctant and cheerful givers.

What if tithing isn’t really about your money… but your heart? In this episode of Rich, Young & Powerful, Andrew McNair unpacks a truth that often gets overlooked in conversations about giving: God isn’t after your wallet—He’s after your heart. Too often, giving can feel like an obligation, a routine, or even a burden. But Scripture paints a very different picture—one where generosity flows from joy, not pressure. Drawing from powerful passages and the story of feeding the 5,000, Andrew explores the two types of givers: The reluctant giver who gives out of obligation The cheerful giver who gives with joy, trust, and expectation And the difference between them isn’t income… it’s perspective. If you’ve ever struggled with giving—or wondered why it feels difficult—this conversation will challenge and encourage you to examine what’s really going on beneath the surface. Because when your heart changes, everything changes. What You’ll Learn Why giving is a heart issue, not a financial issue The hidden danger of “checking the box” with tithing How to shift from reluctant giving to joyful generosity What the feeding of the 5,000 teaches about trust and provision Why you truly can’t…
