Giving to Grace Fellowship Chuch of Anderson
Making a Difference Through Generosity
“Life’s most powerful moments often come from making a difference in someone else’s story. Through your relationship with Jesus, you can experience a life filled with purpose and meaning. One powerful way to impact others is through generosity.”
– Bart Blair

Why Should I Give to the Church?
“For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that you by his poverty might become rich.”
2 Corinthians 8:9
God’s given you an incredible gift in Jesus. Your giving is simply a natural response to that gift. It’s not about rules or obligations – it’s about gratitude and the desire to help others experience the same life-changing love you’ve found.
What is Biblical Giving?
“Each person should do as he has decided in his heart—not reluctantly or out of compulsion, since God loves a cheerful giver.” – 2 Corinthians 9:7
If you’re new to church or faith, you might have questions about giving. In the Bible, people started with a tithe – giving 10% of their income. But the core message isn’t about a specific amount – it’s about giving intentionally and cheerfully in a way that makes sense for your situation.
Healthy giving is:
* Planned and consistent
* Generous and sacrificial
* Motivated by your love for Jesus
* An expression of worship
* Focused on lasting Kingdom impact
Making Your Life Count
“Store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves don’t break in and steal.” – Matthew 6:20 (CSB)
Success isn’t just about what’s in your bank account or on your resume. Real fulfillment comes from using what you have to make a difference. When you give, you’re investing in changes that last – both in your own life and in others’ lives.
Your giving helps:
* Connect people with Jesus
* Meet practical needs around you
* Train people to help others
* Create a welcoming place for everyone
* Spread hope to more communities
How to Grow in Your Generosity
“And God is able to make every grace overflow to you, so that in every way, always having everything you need, you may excel in every good work.” – 2 Corinthians 9:8 (CSB)
Everyone’s journey with giving looks different, and that’s okay. Whether this is your first time giving or you’re looking to give more consistently, Grace Fellowship Church offers practical help. Throughout the year, you can join workshops and classes about handling money wisely and understanding what the Bible says about generosity.

“Now may the one who provides seed for the sower and bread for food provide and multiply your seed and increase the harvest of your righteousness.” – 2 Corinthians 9:10
