Generosity
God loves generous people because generous people love others well.
We know that giving is a part of what we're called to do as Christ followers (2 Corinthians 9:7) because it makes us more like Jesus.
"Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver." -2 Corinthians 9:7
But how do we actually give?
"And I am praying that you will put into action the generosity that comes from your faith as you understand and experience all the good things we have in Christ."
Philemon 1:6
We're here to help.
God calls us to live generously through the tithe, returning the first 10% of our income (since it’s all already His, anyway) to the local church.
"Bring the full tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. And thereby put me to the test, says the Lord of hosts, if I will not open the windows of heaven for you and pour down for you a blessing until there is no more need." - Malachi 3:10
We deeply believe in generosity and the depth it brings to our relationship with God.
A huge part of tithing is consistency—not just saying "yes" to obeying God once or twice, but doing so on a regular basis.
