For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that you by his poverty might become rich.
— 2 Corinthians 8:9

In Jesus’ most famous sermon he taught something very important about our hearts. He said, “Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also” (Matthew 6:21).

As Christians, we know that we are Jesus’ treasure, and so he became poor, so that we through his poverty might share in the riches of his inheritance (2 Corinthians 8:9). Our treasure is there with him, safe and secure — an inheritance which is “imperishable, undefiled, and unfading” (1 Peter 1:4).

As citizens of Jesus’ kingdom, we are called and set free to be profusely generous with these riches he has entrusted to us. And so, giving is not a moral checklist, but an act of our worship which proclaims our trust in his grip upon our lives, and his promise to give us all that we need. We invite you to give back to him through tithing and sacrificial giving, following in the way of Christ, who embodies the truth “It is more blessed to give than to receive” (Acts 20:35).
