THE BIBLE INSTRUCTS THE CHURCH TO GIVE FAITHFULLY (MARK 12:41), CHEERFULLY (2 CORINTHIANS 9:7), AND SACRIFICIALLY (ACTS 2:42). WE TITHE BECAUSE WE BELIEVE THE GIFTS WE HAVE RECEIVED ARE DIRECTLY FROM GOD. HE BLESSES US, AND WE ARE INSTRUCTED TO STEWARD THEM WELL. WE GIVE A PORTION BACK TO HIM AND TRUST THAT HE WILL TAKE CARE OF OUR NEEDS. THESE FUNDS, IN TURN, GO TO SUPPORT THE MISSION OF OUR CHURCH AND ALLOW US TO BE ABLE TO SERVE OUR COMMUNITY.
