Giving Principles
Jesus talked more about money than He did prayer, heaven or hell. Why? Because He said, “Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also” (Matthew 6:21). Giving is a heart issue that gets to the core of what we believe and…what we want to become.
We believe giving is an act of worship, as we learn to respond in a very tangible way to the incredible generosity of God. We give out of grateful hearts in recognition that God owns everything, and we are to be faithful stewards of all he entrusts to us.
There are four foundational principles we embrace:
1. Because God owns everything, all that we have is a gift. And, because God owns it all, each gift he entrusts to us is ours to enjoy and steward. (1 Chronicles 29:14; 1 Corinthians 4:2)
2. Every believer has a responsibility to support his or her home church financially. (Malachi 3:8-10; 1 Corinthians 9:7-12; 1 Timothy 5:17-18)
3. Every believer should prayerfully consider the biblical guideline of the tithe (10% of one’s income) as a helpful starting point for learning how to give. (Genesis 14:18-20; Malachi 3:8-10; Matthew 23:23)
4. Every believer can give biblically, regardless of income. The amount is not as important as the heart as one gives…regularly, proportionally, generously, sacrificially and cheerfully. (1 Corinthians 16:2; Acts 11:29; 2 Corinthians 8:1-5; 2 Corinthians 9:7)
