There are a lot of emotions surrounding the topic of giving. Some people feel they do not make enough to give while others are prideful as to the amount they give. The Bible makes it clear that one of the characteristics of a person pursuing Full Devotion to Jesus Christ is that they are a generous giver - one who gives with an obedient will, a joyful attitude and a compassionate heart.
Giving allows us to say "thank you" to God for His provisions in our lives (James 1:17). It helps us to focus on God as the source of our security (Matthew 6). Giving allows us to be a conduit for blessing others and breaks the hold that money can have on us. The Bible teaches that we are managers and not owners of God's resources that He has entrusted to us.
Psalm 24:1 (NAS) states, "The earth is the Lord's, and all it contains, the world, and those who dwell in it."
One of our goals as a church is to help Christ-followers experience the joy of giving in a systematic, sacrificial and proportionate manner as an act of worship and a tangible expression of their love for God.
We provide Education courses and seminars to teach what the Bible says about managing God's money well. We offer one-on-one Services through budget advising and practical solutions. We also provide an opportunity to make a perpetual investment through Legacy giving.
