Stewardship
Sharing our gifts of time, talent, and financial resources
"Bring the whole tithe...test me in this says the Lord Almighty,
and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and
pour out so much blessing that you will not have room enough
for it." -
Malachi
3:10
At New Hope Church, we give our gifts not in order to gain favor
with God, but out of gratitude for the gift of our salvation
in Jesus Christ, so that in our whole life we may show ourselves
grateful to God for His many blessings. Our gifts include time,
talents, and financial resources.
We
believe that, in response
to Christ's
abundant giving to us, we should increasingly seek to submit
our personal resources to Him, displaying a spirit of generosity
and cheerfulness (
