We give because He gave.
Online Giving
Giving online is simple, secure, and the easiest way to support Hope financially. Make a single donation or set up regular giving using your checking account, debit, or credit card.
The Generosity Pathway is designed to guide people on a journey from money being their god to money becoming a tool for God’s Kingdom.
Rather than measuring progress by amounts or percentages, this path centers on the condition of our hearts, forming us more deeply into the likeness of Christ with each step.
GROWTH, NOT PROGRESSION
Each point along the Generosity Path reflects growth in a lifestyle of generosity and sacrifice. This is not a path we walk to get closer to God, but a tool to help us honestly reflect on how generosity is shaping our hearts.
ROOTED IN SCRIPTURE
How people use, trust, and prioritize money is a core spiritual issue woven all throughout Scripture. The Bible contains over 2,000 passages about money and possessions because God knows how easily we place our trust and our hope in the things we believe we own. But understanding that God owns it all allows us to experience freedom and peace that surpasses understanding.
YOUR NEXT STEP
There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to generosity, but you can use this guide to help evaluate your own heart. Where are you on your journey today? What step could you take to place even more faith and trust in God’s plan for your life?
BEGIN WITH PRAYER
Scripture shows that Jesus regularly spent time praying for guidance, strength, and alignment with God’s will. If Jesus—God in human form—sought God in prayer, how much more then do we need to do the same? Go to God in prayer and ask Him to guide you along the path and into what He has next for you.
Where the Money Goes
General Ministry
Consistent giving provides funding stability so we can continue to serve our local community and support our local partners. General Ministry giving does much more than keep the lights on at our campuses, it funds all our ministry efforts for kids, adults, and our local outreach and global mission partners.
More Ways to Give
Giving should be simple. Here are some additional ways to give.
