Giving

We value extravagant giving - loving God. We believe with all our hearts that wherever God guides, He provides (Acts 20:35; 1 Cor. 15:58; Col. 1:10). We desire to make available all we possess for the building of the Kingdom and recognize that we hold all things from God in trust. We know that material possessions tend to possess us by becoming our security or source of anxiety. By returning the tithe (Matt. 23:23; Mal. 2:10) we are reminded of Who our provider is. We give according to our willingness (Luke 21:1-4), sacrificially (Luke 10:29-35), freely (Matt. 10:8), cheerfully (2 Cor. 9:7) and consistently (1 Cor. 16:2).
