WORSHIP THROUGH GIVING
God provides for the ministries of our church through your tithes and offerings, and your gifts are honored with faithful stewardship, ethical business practices, and accountability to our leadership. It’s more than keeping the lights on and the gears turning; it’s about personal worship to God and giving back to Him what He already owns…and it’s about lives changing through the transformative power of the Gospel in our community and beyond.
"But who am I, and who are my people, that we should be able to give as generously as this? Everything comes from you, and we have given you only what comes from your hand.” 1 Chronicles 29:14
God’s Word calls us to obediently "TITHE" (give 10%) of what He gives us. "OFFERINGS" given to God are gifts above and beyond our tithes. Tithes and offerings are vital to the health of Searcy First and provide for all the areas of ministry and outreach.
Prayerfully ask God what He wants to do through your giving. We don't want our vision for our church, we want God's vision for His church, and you can be part of that vision through your tithes and offerings. Come along side and be part of the unfolding of God's story at Searcy First, and prepare to be blessed.
“Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.” 2 Corinthians 9:7-8
