GIVE TO LIVE OAK CHURCH

Giving Generously

Giving Generously is the practice of giving financially to the work of the local church. At Live Oak, we teach people to give a percentage of their income to the local church, working towards the goal of giving ten percent.

God loves when His people give generously to the work of building His Kingdom. The Bible says, “You must each decide in your heart how much to give. And don’t give reluctantly or in response to pressure. For God loves a person who gives cheerfully. And God will generously provide all you need. Then you will always have everything you need and plenty left over to share with others.” (2 Corinthians 9:7-8 NLT)

In other words, don’t be stingy with your money, and don’t give in response to guilt or pressure. God doesn’t need your money. He invites you to give willingly and joyfully out of trust in Him, gratitude for His provision in your life and awareness that He is the one who gives you the ability to earn in the first place.

The beauty of God’s design is that by giving generously, you directly support the work of seeing people transformed by Jesus Christ, and on top of this, you are blessed in return by seeing God provide for all of your needs!

If you’re not already in the practice of giving generously to the local church, we recommend that you pick a percentage, even as little as one percent of your income, and give at that percentage until you’re ready to increase it, working your way to ten percent. We believe that when you give, you position yourself to see God’s provision in your life, and that He does more with ninety percent than you could ever do with one hundred percent.
