How Our Tithe Calculator Works

This Tithe Calculator uses biblical principles and modern financial practices to determine your giving:

Calculates 10% tithe on gross or net income according to your preference
Adjusts for pay frequency (weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, annually)
Considers denominational differences in tithing practices
Calculates tax deductions available for charitable giving
Includes additional offerings beyond the basic tithe

        2025 Tithe Formula:

        Base Tithe = Income × 10%

        Total Giving = Base Tithe + Additional Offerings

        Tax Savings = Total Giving × (Tax Bracket %)

        Effective Giving Rate = (Total Giving ÷ Gross Income) × 100
