When you worship God through giving, it’s a sign of obedience to His word, and a response to the blessings He has given you.

You’re investing in your future. When you give, it’s your faith in action… you believe God’s promise that he will continue to meet your needs and give you bountiful blessings.

“Bring all the tithes into the storehouse so there will be enough food in my Temple. If you do,” says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies, “I will open the windows of heaven for you. I will pour out a blessing so great you won’t have enough room to take it in! Try it! Put me to the test!’” – Malachi 3:10 (NLT)

Frequently Asked Questions

  • A tithe is, simply, one-tenth of whatever you bring into your home financially that you then bring to God.

  • You should give based on money that passes through your hands, whether it be your paycheck, tax refund or any other form of income. Keep this principle front and center:

    “Remember this—a farmer who plants only a few seeds will get a small crop. But the one who plants generously will get a generous crop.” – 2 Corinthians 9:6 (NLT)

  • Your tithes help to support the awesome task of winning souls to Christ; operational needs of the church, outreach ministries, educational materials, educational scholarships and more. 

  • No, tithing does not grant you salvation. To be saved, you must confess with your mouth and believe in your heart that Jesus is the Son of God. Tithing is a sign of obedience to God and faith in his word that he will meet your needs

  • Not tithing does not mean you are not saved; however, it does mean you are being disobedient to God.
