Me and my husband have been arguing about tithing I need advice
Me and my husband didn’t grow up LDS and we joined later when we were about 8 years old so tithing is something that I have always paid and he hasn’t and his parents didn’t either but they supported him and my parents weren’t really supportive but they paid tithing I guess because my mom chose to. Anyways if you don’t pay tithing you can’t get a temple recommend and so ours expired and I want to renew it and I’m stuck because my husband insists he doesn’t want to pay. I’m supposed to pay 10% and so I said maybe we can even just pay like a small bit and he isn’t willing. I don’t want him to judge me because I’m from Utah and stuff because I care about this stuff for my own reasons and not just because I’m from Utah but anytime I bring it up we just fight. I’m to a point that I have to buy normal underwear instead of garments because I can’t renew my temple recommend without my husband being on the same page. He even threatened to leave the church yesterday which he doesn’t mean but we don’t even read our scriptures or anything so wearing my garments has been a treasure to me and the only thing I’m doing right with church so I just am so tired of arguing about this. I would not have this problem if I wasn’t married to him but I don’t want to leave him either because I love him. I just don’t know how to feel better about this stuff. People in Utah don’t understand so whenever I ask people about it they just say to pay my part but that is not how I want to run my marriage.
