the Godly loves to give

GOD LOVES A CHEERFUL GIVER
WHAT IS TITHING
One aspect of stewardship is tithing. This is an important Bible concept. The word tithe means a tenth. As stewards, we need to know the proper way to tithe, what tithes are, where and to whom it should be paid, what we are to tithe on, and when to tithe.
Where you spend your money is an indication of where your heart is. If we love the things of God, our giving pattern will show it.
WHAT is OFFERING
Most of our CRC Homecells meet from 19:00 on a Wednesday evening. We do however have other options like Moms Homecells or Business Homecells for people who are unable to attend on a Wednesday evening. We even have international online Homecells available.

Your Homecell is your oikos, your people and your community. We ensure you are placed within a Homecell of like-minded people of similar age and relevance. We have specific Homecells for teens, youth and students, moms, young adults, adults, business people and so much more!

GOD WANTS YOU TO GIVE FROM A HEART OF LOVE
Giving is not a compulsory religious act. God desires people to respond to Him out of hearts full of Love. He never wants to pressure any of us against our own free will.
2 Corinthians 9:7
GOD WANTS YOU TO GIVE TO THE LOCAL CHURCH WHERE YOU ARE PLANTED.
The Word of God is very clear as to where we are to give our offerings. We are to bring our tithes and offerings to the storehouse, the local church, in which we worship. This is the place where we are fed, strengthened and grow. By faithfully bringing our gifts before the Lord, we are actually declaring that we put our confidence in Him and the leadership He has chosen for our church. We communicate our trust in their wisdom to dispense the money according to God’s ways.
Malachi 3:10
GOD WANTS YOU TO GIVE YOUR BEST TO HIM
Some Christians only give their leftovers to the Lord. If they have any money left after paying all the bills (which is very rare) they give that to the Lord. God’s not interested in that type of offering. He wants the best part. He wants the first part. When this is given to the Lord, he promises to stretch the rest of our finances to meet our needs.
Proverbs 3:9-10
GOD CARES ABOUT THE QUALITY OF YOUR GIVING
Mark 12 illustrates a valuable parable of Jesus standing over the treasury watching how people cast their money into the offering box. Of all the givers there that day, His commendation went to a poor widow who did not have much at all, but she gave everything she had. She gave 100% into the house of God.
Mark 12:44
