The word “tithe” means a tenth or 10 percent. The Bible says in Leviticus 27:30, “A tithe of everything from the land, whether grain from the soil or fruit from the trees, belongs to the LORD; it is holy to the LORD.” Returning the tithe is a Biblical command for all Christ-followers to give 10 percent of everything earned back to God through the local church. We do this because God has blessed us, and we want to express our thankfulness to Him.

As we are faithful to God with the tithe, He promises to bless us in more ways that we can imagine. In Malachi 3:8-10, God speaks to us: “Will a man rob God? Yet you rob me. But you ask, ‘How do we rob you?’ In tithes and offerings. You are under a curse—the whole nation of you—because you are robbing me. Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. ‘Test me in this,’ says the LORD Almighty, ‘and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that you will not have room enough for it.’”

As Christ-followers, we know that God has asked us to give to Him a “tithe” or a tenth of what He has blessed us with. That is what we do out of obedience to Him. An offering is anything we feel led to give over and above our tithe. We might feel led to give an offering to support mission work overseas or to give to a building campaign because we want to see God do more through us. An offering is something we should give cheerfully. (See 2 Corinthians 9:7)

Jesus talked more about giving than the subjects of heaven, hell, or prayer. In Matthew 6:21 and 24 Jesus says, “For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also…No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money.”

We believe that giving is a spiritual matter, and as we give, we show God that we love Him more than our money. We also know that we can never outgive God. As we give to others, the Bible tells us that it is given back to us by that same measure. In Luke 6:38 He says, “Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.”

100% of everything given goes directly to the ministry of X Church. From that, we put aside 10% of what is given to be used for Outreach purposes. All financial gifts are used toward the expenses of ministry (paying staff, facility expenses, and all other ministry related expenses.)

Yes. We are a 501(C)3 organization and all donations for ministry purpose are charitable contributions. At the beginning of the New Year, you will receive a statement from X Church indicating your contributions for the year for tax purposes.

Your information is held securely by the Secure Give system. This information will remain private and will never be given away to third parties, other than to process your scheduled contributions. You can schedule new contributions at any time and can modify or cancel those contributions at any time prior to the date they are scheduled. Once the contribution has been processed, however, it cannot be canceled. If you have any problems or questions related to this, please contact us at hello@thex.church.

As a church, it is our desire to help people when possible. This does not mean we give handouts, but rather help for those who are trying to get out of a financial hardship.
