Giving
For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
- Matthew 6:21
Why we give.
To be fully-devoted followers of Jesus, God calls us all to give cheerfully! This is our opportunity to worship the Creator through our finances and acknowledge that He owns it all; and we are simply stewards of what He entrusts to us.
“Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.” –2 Corinthians 9:7 NIV

What's the Difference
Between Tithes and Offerings?
Tithes:
The Bible has many different types of giving. The first is the “tithe” (the Hebrew word translates literally to mean “tenth”). When you give the first 10% of your income to the Lord through the church, you put God first, and the Bible says He blesses the rest!
“Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this,” says the Lord Almighty, “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it.” –Malachi 3:10 NIV

Offerings:
Another type of giving is an offering, which is when you give generously above and beyond your tithe to meet a specific need or simply out of gratitude for the Lord’s goodness. As an individual or a family, we hope you will prayerfully consider how God is inviting you to get into the story through your giving.
“And God’s grace was so powerfully at work in them all that there were no needy persons among them. For from time to time those who owned land or houses sold them, brought the money from the sales and put it at the apostles’ feet, and it was distributed to anyone who had need.” – Acts 4:33-35 NIV
