Why we give at Northside.
Generosity is defined as “sincerity” or “healthy.” Generosity is also defined as “without reserve.” Generosity is a sincere act of the heart. It is also healthy for us to be generous. Our generosity is not “to receive” but is “without reserve.” Generosity is the heart of giving and here at Northside, we want to be generous.
Generosity at Northside supports both the ministry of the local church as well as various mission’s organizations around the world. We actively support local ministries in our community such as Pregnancy Concerns, Mercy Ministries, Operation Christmas Child, Single Mom’s Ministry, Pacific Life Bible College, Hope for Freedom Society, Higher Ground Wellness Society etc. Oversees, we are involved supporting Petros Network, Hope for Korah, YWAM, Missions in Mexico, Classrooms for Africa, and Foursquare Missions.
In 2021, 40% of our giving went to ministries outside of our church. At Northside, we believe “giving is an act of worship.”
Generosity is an act of worship
Romans 12:1
“Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship.”
Generosity is a spiritual gift
Romans 12:6,8b
“We have different (spiritual) gifts, according to the grace given to each of us…if it is giving, then give generously”
Generosity supports those in need
Acts 2:44,45
“All the believers were together and had everything in common. Selling their possessions and goods, they shared with anyone who was in need.”
Generosity is an act of kindness
Proverbs 19:17
“Whoever is kind to the poor lends to the Lord, and he will reward them for what they have done.”
