    What motivates you to give? The Corinthians had an easy time setting unrealistic giving goals that set them up for failure, but a hard time giving in a way that released the gift to God and brought Him glory. In this chapter Paul gives us some valuable le

    Giving is one of those subjects that pastors either ignore or really focus on. For us at Calvary Chapel, we teach through the Scriptures so when a chapter comes along on any particular subject then we teach it. Giving should be a part of every growing Christian’s experience, and I’m not ...read more

    When we hear the word giving in church, we often think, here we go again. The church or pastor only wants us to give because he gets more money or looks more successful. The reality is that God wants us to give so we dont trust in money or stuff ahead

    Using guilt to get people to give money to the Lord’s work is wrong, but it is a temptation because 37% of regular church attenders give nothing to the church, 33% of them engage in at least some form of gambling.

    Part I Purpose: To lay out God's parameters for giving. Aim: I want the listener to examine how they give to God and make any changes that are contrary to God's design for giving.

    The example of the Macedonian our Corinthian churches give us tremendous advice on the sensitive subject of tithing for NT believers today! Advice that is easy to understand requiring very little interpretation!

    So much is said about tithing and yet it is probably the most difficult subject for me to speak on. I think it would be actually easier if the church was wealthy. Why is this such a sensitive subject? Or maybe its me, but why is it so hard to preach on? What about to you? Think about it for a ...read more
