When You Give

In this week's message, Pastor Mark explains Jesus's teachings about generosity and reward, particularly how Christians should practice righteousness not for public recognition but for God's approval. The message traces generosity throughout scripture, from God's creation to Old Testament tithing practices to Jesus's teachings, emphasizing that generosity should flow from the heart in all areas of life. Using personal stories about extraordinary acts of giving, Pastor Mark challenges the congregation to reframe their understanding of reward beyond financial security and to honestly evaluate whether they're giving according to their true ability, inviting them to upcoming financial stewardship sessions to explore these concepts further.
