“We love because He first loved us.”

1 John 4:18 is a familiar and, for many, a favorite Bible verse. Does it then follow that we give because He first gave us the most precious gift of all? The gift of eternal life through His son, Jesus Christ.

Being an image bearer of Christ, we are called to reflect His heart of generosity. Generous giving supports the church’s mission of connecting people to Jesus here and around the world. Let us glorify God in every area of our lives, including how we use our financial resources to advance His Kingdom.
