Money and giving are heart issues. A heart touched by God gives generously and starts with a tithe. 2 Corinthians 9:7 says: "Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver." No one is forced to give. We pray that you look at the word of God and give cheerfully, not under compulsion. We practice tithing, which means giving 10% of our income to Jesus by giving it to His church to fuel His mission.

In Matthew 6:24 Jesus introduces us to the concept of "mammon," a spirit tied to money. The spirit of mammon tries to block our generosity and our connection with God. But through tithing and generous giving, we break free from its grip. Generosity doesn't stop at the tithe. We are called to give over and above, what we call "Kingdom Builders." This is about asking ourselves, "How much can I give over the tithe? How much should I keep?" It's not about the legalistic approach but about a heart touched by God's generosity.
