Church Giving

Giving to Lake Chapala Baptist Church helps us share the good news of Jesus and share practical help with those around us in need.

​

As followers of Jesus, we give out of gratitude. 

We give, not under obligation, but out of gratitude for Jesus' sacrifice on our behalf. Paul wrote about giving, but he did not mention a specific amount as a standard for contributions (Romans 7:4-6; Galatians 2:17-21).

 

Several verses in the New Testament suggest guidelines for our giving.

We should give regularly (1 Corinthians 16:2), privately (Matthew 6:3-4), proportionately (2 Corinthians 8:11-13), generously (2 Corinthians 9:6), and cheerfully (2 Corinthians 9:7-8).

 

Our attitude in giving is just as important as the amount we give. 

Through our giving we demonstrate our dependence on and trust in the Lord. We express our reliance on Him to meet our needs, instead of trusting ourselves or our earnings.
