Let's Give the World the Hope of Jesus

You must each decide in your heart how much to give. And don’t give reluctantly or in response to pressure.
"For God loves a person who gives cheerfully."

2 Corinthians 9:7 (NLT)

FAQs

Please give using the method that's best for you. Setting up a recurring ACH gift is the most cost-effective method for the church, as it minimizes our processing fees.

Yes! The church does not keep your payment information. It is processed by Process4Change and PaymentsHub. These entities are PCI Security Standards Council compliant, VISA CISP compliant and Trustwave Security Services compliant.

The church is charged 1.25–3% on credit card transactions. The fee is much less for ACH transactions debiting your bank account. *There is an option to cover the processing fee when you set up your recurring gift.

A recurring gift is an online gift that, once it is set up, will happen automatically. Most people that are paid bi-weekly set their gift to occur every two weeks.

Here is a small sample of the many verses that illuminate the Bible's teachings on the profound impact and importance of giving in various forms:

You must each decide in your heart how much to give. And don't give reluctantly or in response to pressure. "For God loves a person who gives cheerfully." And God will generously provide all you need. Then you will always have everything you need and plenty left over to share with others. As the Scriptures say, "They share freely and give generously to the poor. Their good deeds will be remembered forever." For God is the one who provides seed for the farmer and then bread to eat. In the same way, He will provide and increase your resources and then produce a great harvest of generosity in you. Yes, you will be enriched in every way so that you can always be generous. And when we take your gifts to those who need them, they will thank God.

2 Corinthians 9:7-11 (NLT)

"For I was hungry, and you fed me. I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink. I was a stranger, and you invited me into your home. I was naked, and you gave me clothing. I was sick, and you cared for me. I was in prison, and you visited me." "Then these righteous ones will reply, 'Lord, when did we ever see you hungry and feed you? Or thirsty and give you something to drink? Or a stranger and show you hospitality? Or naked and give you clothing? When did we ever see you sick or in prison and visit you?' "And the King will say, 'I tell you the truth, when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were doing it to me!'"

Matthew 25:35-40 (NLT)

If you help the poor, you are lending to the LORD — and He will repay you!

Proverbs 19:17 (NLT)

And I have been a constant example of how you can help those in need by working hard. You should remember the words of the Lord Jesus: "It is more blessed to give than to receive."

Acts 20:35 (NLT)

"Bring all the tithes into the storehouse so there will be enough food in my Temple. If you do," says the LORD of Heaven's Armies, "I will open the windows of heaven for you. I will pour out a blessing so great you won't have enough room to take it in! Try it! Put me to the test!"

Malachi 3:10 (NLT)

Imagine you saw a farmer who never planted a seed sitting around waiting for vegetables to grow. You would scratch your head because there is a principle that you sow first, then you reap. This is the same principle God applies to your finances. It's easy to say, once I get in a better situation or once I get this next promotion, then I'll start to tithe. You're waiting for God to be faithful to you without sowing anything. The more you give, the more you give God the chance to show His faithfulness.


When it comes to tithing, God isn't putting you to the test to see what you're made of. He's putting you to the test to show you what He's made of! It's important, though, that you don't give reluctantly or out of compulsion. Rather, you give to show your faithfulness to God. You cannot say God is first in your life and not have Him first in your finances. When you have a hobby you love, you give your resources — time and money — to that particular thing. If you love God, you will give your resources — time and money — to God.


The Bible tells us that we're stewards of our finances. This means that everything we have is God's, and we've been entrusted with it. If we view everything as God's, it would be easier for us to tithe. We can think, Well, God didn't go to work for me. God didn't build this company or put the long hours in. True, but where do our opportunities come from? Where do our natural skills and abilities come from? When we slow down and look around, we understand that every good and perfect gift is from above.


Finances reveal where our trust is because nothing gives us more security or insecurity in this world than finances. If we view everything as God's, He has more than enough to care for us. Our jobs are to be faithful to give what He places on our hearts. If you've never given before, start giving regularly. If you're giving regularly, pray about giving your tithe or 10%. If you're giving your tithe, pray about Spirit-led giving, where you ask God what specific percentage He's calling you to give. Just remember this truth: you can never outgive God. He's the most generous person in the whole universe.
