why give?

Giving is not a transaction.
It is a spiritual practice.

Money and church can be a touchy issue - but it doesn't have to be. We do not give because God needs our money, and we do not give because the church needs our money. It's much bigger than that. We give because a community that is being renewed by the gospel will be a generous community.  God freely has given us all things for the joy of knowing Him. Its that same generous spirit we are able to experience when we give to God's work in the world.

What is "tithing"?

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.

What is the "tithing challenge"?

If you are exploring ways to give, we invite you to try tithing for 3 months. Tithing helps us rethink about our resources in new ways. It connects us to the collective work of God. Tithing helps us prioritize our finances around values that our entire family benefits from.
