Why Give
As people of faith, we give faithfully and generously. Giving strengthens our devotion to Christ and frees us to live open-handedly with the gifts God gives us. We trust in Him and His provision instead of our perceived self-sufficiency. The stewardship of our finances is a tremendous—and often overlooked—area of our lives where we can faithfully proclaim the gospel.
When you tithe (give), you're trusting God with your finances. Tithing is a biblical principle. God calls us to give the first 10% of our income back to Him. We've seen God provide abundantly in our church, and we know He will provide abundantly for you and your family when you put Him first in your finances. In fact, it's the one area in the Bible where God tells you to test Him.
"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
