Giving at Bethel Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. 2 Corinthians 9:7 NIV Give Now Contact Us Ways to Give Why Give Giving FAQ's Tithing was introduced early in the bible when God asked his people to return to Him their first fruits of the harvest and the topic weaves throughout the bible. Why would God ask this of us? Is it because he needs the money? No, after all, he owns it all. Yet, the concept of money is the most referenced subject in scripture. So why all the emphasis over money? Well, it’s likely because God understands how we’re wired (he did create us after all) and knows our hearts are very intertwined with our finances and that many people trust in wealth more than in Him. What God desires is that we trust Him with all areas of our life, including our finances. Online E-Transfer In-Person Automatic Withdrawal Donate once or on a recurring basis via the Pushpay service.
