Growing in Discipleship
Giving
Offering is a way in which we are invited to worship God. It is the Christian discipline of stewardship where we honour God and He is our sole provider. We do this in faith, trusting that God will continue to lavish abundantly in us as He has, as He is doing, and as He will do.
