We believe that we are called to steward the resources God has entrusted to us. This means using our time, talent, and treasure in a way that demonstrates our lives belong to Him. Because we believe strongly in the vision God has given us, our community collectively commits to giving financially on a regular basis. Learn more about how to participate, our philosophy of giving, and our approach to stewardship below.

Everything centers on discipleship (Matthew 28:16-20). This means we focus our resources across all three campuses on program services that support kids, students, families, missions and outreach, community, and teaching and worship. Approximately 82% of our giving goes directly to programs and efforts meant to help people grow in their relationship with Jesus and get important physical, emotional, and spiritual needs met locally and around the world.
As a practice, we also take a portion of our general giving and give it away to outstanding individuals, families, and organizations that are making an impact in our local community and around the world. Our goal is to take 10% from our general fund annually and give it to trusted missions partners as they make a difference in the lives of those around them. In addition, we also take 1% of the general fund and allocate that toward benevolence needs to provide hope and encouragement to those going through challenging circumstances.

General Fund
The general fund supports our day to day ministry needs – everything from our Sundays to midweek gatherings for high school students. This is the primary fund we ask folks to give toward, as we draw all our ministry and operational expenses from it. In addition, this fund supports all of our missions work – both local and international – as well as benevolence. 10% of every dollar in the general fund goes toward missions, and an additional 1% goes toward benevolence needs to support our neighbors as we seek to provide hope and encouragement during challenging circumstances and seasons.
Benevolence Fund
Sometimes we or people we know go through challenging circumstances that benefit from outside financial support. While the benevolence fund is primarily supported through general giving, folks who want to give specifically to support this fund may also do so. We use these dollars to provide hope and encouragement to folks in our community when they fall on difficult times.
