Although the Scriptures teach that God truly owns everything, He has ordained that His work in the world be supported by the generous giving of His individual people. When we support the church through our tithes and offerings, we are creating opportunities for people to connect with God and His love through our worship, discipleship and outreach minstries. As a result kids experience Jesus at camp and in Godzone on Sunday mornings, we worship God and are challenged to grow in Him, families are encouraged through Upward Soccer and Parent's Night Out. In these ways and more people hear the good news of God's love in Jesus Christ. 

 

The Scriptures teach that God wants to see His people trusting Him by giving a tithe, or 10% of their income. Many of us are not tithers yet, but we should seek to become so. Consider responding to what God has done in your life and wants to do through you and our church by moving toward and even beyond God's standard of a tithe. Jesus did say, "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." (Matthew 6:21)
