Hiding in All the Wrong Places

When we fully commit our life and finances to God, He builds our faith muscles. The Bible teaches us that we are to give to God, not just because we want to, but because it's a part of our relationship with Him. Some people don't give to God because they're not concerned about His work, not convinced they're responsible, or not courageous enough to trust Him. We must prioritize our giving and make commitments to God, trusting that He will provide for our needs. [... more]

Spending Decisions Are Spiritual Decisions with Dr. Kelly Rush

Financial decisions are spiritual decisions, and the story of Jonah illustrates this truth. Jonah's actions show that money and motives move in the same direction, revealing the spiritual dimension of spending. When our hearts move off course, our spending decisions will financially do the same, and poor stewardship can have ripple effects on others. Genuine repentance can redirect spending away from what harms and toward what honors God, and faithful follow-through looks like having a budget and sticking to it, keeping commitments to generosity, and giving as a form of worship.

What's a Donor-Advised Fund? (And Should You Use One?)

Generosity begins in the heart, not in the tax code. A donor-advised fund can help you give joyfully and steward resources efficiently, separating the act of giving from the act of distributing.

Donor-advised funds have become the fastest-growing vehicle for charitable giving in America, combining the flexibility of a personal giving account with the efficiency of professional administration.
