We believe the top competitor for our devotion to Jesus is money (Matthew 6:24). Giving allows us to demonstrate that He is more important to us than material things.

We believe you can’t out give God, so when you’re trusting Him with your tithes and offerings we know that He will bless the rest (Proverbs 3:9-10 and Malachi 3:10-12).

We think Christians should be the most generous people (2 Corinthians 9:6) on earth to support worthy causes, and there is no organization with more potential to change the world than the local church (Ephesians 3:10)!

Giving.  It is one of the greatest blessings as a follower of Jesus.  Paul reminds us of what Jesus said, “It is more blessed to give than to receive.”  Those who have made giving as part of their Christian journey can attest to the beautiful reality of that simple truth. We have recently added online contributions to enable our members more flexibility and ease in giving.  As technology has advanced, we now can give with greater security and confidence than ever before through this simple tool. We want to encourage you and your family to consider trying the online giving we have setup on our website.  Through this media you can give one time or setup recurring giving as well.  I believe you will find it to be a tool that will streamline your giving back to God and allow for simple tracking of all you have given throughout the year. Giving is a joy and an honor. So as you make giving a part of your walk with Jesus, consider trying out the our online giving feature.

A tithe—which just means “tenth”—is defined as the first 10% of a person’s income that is to be given back to the local church. Tithing is a principle that is taught throughout the entire Bible. When we tithe, we are expressing worship in a tangible way by putting God first in our lives!

Bringing our tithes is an opportunity for us to give God our thanks, show God we trust Him, and fight against greed in our hearts…all while allowing us to be a part of the most important work in life that is spreading the Good News of Jesus Christ!
