What Are You Giving God?

God had a problem with the people. They were supposed to give offerings from the best, but they were giving things that were blemished. What was God's opinion of this? Malachi 1:6-14 gives God's response to these offerings. Although times have changed, His response on giving can instruct us as we give to God.
