Stewardship of Giving: Grace Giving is rooted in the generosity of our heavenly Father who gave the “indescribable gift” of his Son, the Lord Jesus.
–By trusting in God’s gracious provision to meet every need, members may give freely in support of God’s work through First Southern (Proverbs 11:24-25; Matthew 6:25-34; Philippians 4:10-20).
–Members should give according to New Testament principles, which are: Regular and in proportion to income (1 Corinthians 16:1-2), generously, sacrificially, and in faith (2 Corinthians 8-9).
