Giving
For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
- Matthew 6:21
WHY WE GIVE.
God Is Generous And So He Calls Us To Be As Well.
What We Do With What God Has Given Us Shows The World Where Our Hearts Are At And Helps Proclaim The Gospel.
We Want To Glorify God With Every Area Of Our Lives, And That Includes What We Do With Our Finances.

GIVE REGULARLY
1 Corinthians 16:2 says, “On the first day of each week , you should each put aside a portion of the money you have earned. Don’t wait until I get there and then try to collect it all at once.”
GIVE PROPORTIONALLY
Matthew 23:23 says, “What sorrow awaits you teachers of religious law and you Pharisees. Hypocrites! For you are careful to tithe even the tiniest income from your herb gardens, but you ignore the more important aspects of the law – justice, mercy, and faith. You should tithe, yes, but do not neglect the more important things.” Tithing is returning the first 10% of our income to God’s Church
GIVE SACRIFICIALLY
Mark 12:43-44, “Jesus called his disciples to him and said, ‘I tell you the truth, this poor widow has given more than all the others who are making contributions. For they gave a tiny part of their surplus, but she, poor as she is, has given everything she had to live on.’”
GIVE CHEERFULLY
2 Corinthians 9:6-7 says, “Remember this – a farmer who plants only a few seeds will get a small crop. But the one who plants generously will get a generous crop. You must each decide in your own heart how much to give. And don’t give reluctantly or in response to pressure. For God loves a person who gives cheerfully.”
