“Pathways to Generosity” is an opportunity to discover the joy of growing in your relationship with God as you experience living generously.

It is God’s intention that we grow more generous and take bigger steps in our giving as we become more aware of how richly God has blessed us in Christ.

What is the Giving Path?

Why talk about money?

Stewardship is directly linked to our journey of discipleship. How we use our resources is primarily a spiritual issue,not a financial one. The quality of that decision is determined by the spiritual

Jesus spoke openly about money and possessions. About two-thirds of the parables and almost one in every ten verses in the Gospels address this very issue. As followers of Jesus, we should not be reluctant to talk about giving as an outward expression of our love for Christ.

In stewardship campaigns, it can be tempting to approach the financial needs of the church as if we were simply funding the budget. In Pathways to Generosity, we acknowledge that living generously is an inseparable part of our following Christ. God does not need our money; rather, we need to give it as an act of gratitude and trust.

As we learn to trust God more and follow Christ’s teaching more faithfully, we learn to depend less on ourselves and more on God, relinquishing attitudes and habits that impede our relationship with God.

Galatians 5:22-23

The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.
