Giving
Why do we give?
Giving is powerful!
Giving releases something in you and releases something for someone. It's been said before, you can give without loving, but you cannot love without giving. Jesus told us that the "greatest command" was to "love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and all your mind." This is the essence of worship. It is with all of our lives.
At Church Alive we believe honoring God with our finances is such an important part of the Christian life because it reveals the heart, and it leads the heart. Jesus taught us to "seek first" the Kingdom of God. This means in every area of our life we put Him first and we know that God blesses the rest of our lives.
We teach people to Honor God with the first portion: The tithe or 10% (Matthew 6:33, Proverbs 3:9-10, Genesis 4:1-6)
We teach people to save/invest the next 10% so we are wise managers. (Proverbs 12:27, Proverbs 6:6-8)
We teach people to live and enjoy the rest.
We teach people to become Spirit led givers. This simply means over and above the tithe, giving becomes a prayerful and joyful journey as God leads you to grow in generosity.
