WHY WE GIVE

Giving Is an Act of Worship and Devotion, a tangible way to express our gratitude and commitment to God and to the community we serve. It's not just about keeping the lights on or funding programs; it's about fueling a mission, making a difference, and leaving a lasting impact. When we give, we participate in the divine act of love and generosity, echoing the grace we've received.

              Freedom For The Giver

              We give because He first gave to us, and we want to bring our first and best to Him. How has God been generous in your life? How have you shared that generosity with others? We have seen God's hand at work in our church family, as Lily Alexander shared during our "An Attitude of Gratitude" Series.

              Let Lily's testimony inspire us to continue embodying an attitude of gratitude and generosity in our lives. May we always remember that freedom truly lies in the act of giving, mirroring the boundless generosity of our Creator. Let us go forth, empowered by His grace, to spread love, kindness, and generosity wherever we go.

              Provision For The Vision

              "A few years ago, a seminary classmate sent me a unique birthday greeting: “Happy Birthday to the Cheapest Man on the Planet.” I initially felt complimented. The well-wisher drove an ancient Volvo like mine; we’d once playfully one-upped each other with frugality techniques. But in time, I grew concerned: is this how I want to be remembered? Because God is calling me to become a new creature in Christ, and CHEAP just isn’t part of that build-sheet! 

              So I have wondered what is it that stands in the way of our becoming the kind of generous people that we admire, or even aspire to be. I just don’t think it’s stinginess for most of us. But it could be the noble desire to provide for and leave a generous legacy for our families." ~ Pastor Dave Rochford

              Listen as Pastor Dave turns to First Timothy 6:17-19, and imagine leaving those whom we love most with the best legacy of all: one of courageous and joyful example.
