why do we give?

​As a church, we believe that we are called to respond to the generosity of The Gospel by giving

extravagantly to the progress of The Gospel in our community and world. Biblical generosity is not about meeting budget needs. It is about a rich and trusting relationship with a living God.
We express our faith and love to Him by honoring Him as the source of everything we have. Scriptural giving is performed with regularity, from the first portion of all we are given, as a proportion of our income, cheerfully, and without pressure or manipulation.
