| Given the fact that many people think the church is ‘all about money,’ we wondered if we should even have an opportunity for online giving. As a church, we’re trying to be really careful about not reinforcing any negative assumptions people may have made.
Giving is a really personal matter, and it’s changed a lot over the centuries. When the Bible was written, gifts often came in the form of bushels of wheat, livestock, etc. Today, money is digital – hence, our decision to allow folks an opportunity to do their giving on the internet.
A couple of quick points about online giving - 1) Remember that there’s no substitute for bringing your gifts to the Lord at church, during a service. Online giving is great, but there’s still nothing like being there. And 2) We encourage you to practice good stewardship. That is, charge only what you can pay off at the end of the month.
Having said that, and especially if you’re out of town and you’re not carrying a balance, we can’t think of any reason why you shouldn’t rack up a few frequent flyer miles while you give to the Lord! :)
