Tithing reflects a grateful heart that wants to give back to God a portion of what He has given us; in reality, what is already His. Tithing is our opportunity to show God that He is first in our lives. You can tell a lot about a person by the way they spend their money. Whether you are tithing as an act of obedience to Malachi 3:10 or contributing over and above your tithe as an act of sacrificial generosity, your donation will help us minister God’s home in our local community and in our world.
KINGDOM BUILDERS
Kingdom Builders is a way of leading the great commission through a community who faithfully give above and beyond. From the kids to adults, the profile of a Kingdom Builder is the same. This community is built of individuals and families that prayerfully commit to give, over and above their tithes, to global missions, local church expansion, and future Christian leaders. Every person in the church has the ability to be a Kingdom Builder. God does not use superstars to do this. It is not about money people have, but the sacrifice they are willing to make. So who can be a Kingdom Builder? Anyone who gives above their tithe, no matter how little or how much. That is who a Kingdom Builder is.
