We’re Making Progress! Here are some photos of the latest developments in our renovation.
By Giving the Tithe
God’s Word teaches the first 10% — the tithe — of our income is the Lord’s. Our giving supports not only our church’s ministry, but also ministries around the world. God promises a blessing as we are obedient to the tithe:
Bring the full tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. And thereby put me to the test,” says the LORD of hosts, “if I will not open the windows of heaven for you and pour down for you a blessing until there is no more need.” —Malachi 3:10
Give an Offering
A second option for supporting Pave the Way is by offerings. Offerings are “over and above” the tithe. An illustration of this comes from the Old Testament:
And [the craftsmen] received from Moses all the contribution that the people of Israel had brought for doing the work on the sanctuary. They still kept bringing him freewill offerings every morning… and [the craftsmen] said to Moses, “The people bring much more than enough for doing the work that the LORD has commanded us to do.” —Exodus 36:3-5
