Tithes & Offerings

We give to show love and honor to God. Giving is an act of obedience, gratitude, and trust. 

Honor the Lord with your wealth and with the firstfruits of all your produce;

- Proverbs 3:9

A tithe is a portion (10%) of your income given to your local church.

Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.

- Hebrews 13:16

Tithing is a way to show God we trust Him with our lives and our finances. Tithing isn’t for God’s benefit, but our own. Sacrificing a portion of our income reminds us to rely on God for our every need.

Give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.

- Luke 6:38

While both are often grouped together, tithing is a specific amount (10%) of your income and offering is anything outside of that 10%.

Every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing of the Lord your God that he has given you.

- Deuteronomy 16:17

One-tenth of the produce of the land, whether grain from the fields or fruit from the trees, belongs to the Lord and must be set apart to him as holy.

- Leviticus 27:30
