Giving

Why We Give

The Bible teaches us the importance of giving back to God. He generously provides for us and we are to give our tithes and offerings to Him as an act of worship. If we give with a cheerful heart we are thanking God for all He has done for us. In Luke 6:38 we read “... give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.” We believe and trust that His words will be fulfilled for God is faithful. 

Financial giving can be divided into two categories: tithes and offerings. The Bible teaches us that we worship the Lord with our tithe, which is ten percent of our income contributed to the church on a regular basis. When we feel called to give over and above our tithe, we do so as an offering.
