Gospel Partnership

THANK YOU FOR YOUR OPEN-HANDED GENEROSITY AND PARTNERSHIP IN THE GOSPEL MINISTRY.

We believe that we give in accordance to how we’ve received. As followers of Jesus Christ, our giving comes as a response to the Gospel of Great Exchange, where the King of all riches gave Himself up and became poor in order that we might have the abundance of His promise of salvation (2 Cor 8:9). For God loves a cheerful (or “propitious”) giver (2 Cor 9:7), as those who give from the abundance of our hearts and in response to what we’ve already received. And thus, we ask that you give, not from a moralistic bind but through the power of grace that’s set you free to give with gladness.

 FAQs

  • Generosity is the natural, consistent, and occasionally spontaneous giving of our material possessions to God’s service and to our communities because of and modeled after what Jesus Christ has done for us on the cross. As God “did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all” (Rom 8:32), so our posture toward God and others in response to his love should be one of cheerful sacrifice and generosity.

  • A steward is a person who has been entrusted with, and who manages, another’s resources according to the owner’s vision and values. Each of us was created for stewardship by God (Gen 1:28). A steward is both a ruler with authority to govern resources and a slave accountable to the owner of those resources. The New Testament calls Christians caretakers of God’s truths and gifts — even God’s grace (1 Cor 4:1; 1 Pet 4:10).

  • In the Old Testament, believers were required to give a tenth of their income to the support of the ministry and the needs of the poor. The New Testament teaches that we should give as we are “able and even beyond [our] ability” (2 Cor 8:3). Therefore, the tithe (10%) is seen as a kind of minimum guideline for giving.

  • Scripture teaches that we are to give back to God our “first fruits” (Exod 23:16, 19). Proverbs 3:9 encourages us to “honor the Lord with [our] wealth, with the first fruits of [our] crops,” meaning the primary and choicest of our possessions. God has modeled “first fruits” by giving us his son, Jesus Christ. Our response to God should reflect our love of and devotion to him.

  • There are seasons in our economic life. There are financial responsibilities to our families, friends, communities, and in some cases, creditors. In any stage of life, good planning is necessary to increase our giving over time without neglecting our legal and personal financial obligations. For some people, 10% is too low a starting point. For others, giving even 5% is a sacrifice. The goal is to increase one’s commitment up to and above 10%, so that it models Christ’s love to our communities.

  • We certainly must be good stewards of all that God has given us: money, time, skills, influence and position. Therefore, generosity and stewardship are about much more, but not less, than our financial resources. Jesus said, “For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also” (Matt 6:21). Our heart’s inclination is to worship anything other than God. For many of us, money can become an idol. Therefore, giving it away generously to God’s service can liberate us from our idolatry and fix our eyes on Jesus (Heb 12:2).
