Giving

The Bible teaches us a baseline standard for giving is called a tithe. Tithing means we give the first 10% of our income to God’s church. This is just one way we put God first in our lives. Tithing is an act of worship that expresses our gratitude, faith, and love for others. We return to the Lord 10% of what He’s given us because it belongs to Him.
At Grace we understand that giving is probably the hardest place to put God first in our lives. We invite you to take a step of faith and trust God with your finances. Jesus talked about personal resources that way in Matthew 6:24. We believe there’s no better return on investment than giving to the work of the local Church. In Mark 10:29-30, Jesus promised that return would come in this life and in the life to come.

Malachi 3:10-12, “Bring your full tithe to the Temple treasury so there will be ample provisions in my Temple. Test me in this and see if I don’t open up heaven itself to you and pour out blessings beyond your wildest dreams.”

The only place God calls us to test Him is in our giving. Look at the promise we get if we do it! He will bless us beyond measure! Why would we not test God in this area and see what happens?

Every Sunday we take an offering at Grace to respond to God and place Him first in our lives. Offering envelopes are in the seat backs for your convenience.
