We believe we have been

called to be generous

At Ascension Church, we believe we have been given a vision of generosity based on Matthew 10 v 8 "Freely you have received, freely give."

God, in Christ Jesus, has blessed us with true and abundant life. His call upon us is to freely give to others just as we have freely received from Him.

Firstly, this means being Christ-centred, spending time with Him, learning from Him, and receiving from Him.

Secondly, it also involves looking outwards, engaging with the people around us, passing on to them what we have received. Through our shared lives, we will be able to come alongside those in our community, bringing God's love and compassion to the needs of those around us.

Giving

Giving is not simply a collection we take, but an offering we make in response to our calling to be generous and to asking ourselves, “How much have I been blessed?” That question lies at the heart of our giving. Our response involves much more than money; it should also include how we honour God through everything we share, including money

Giving is not always easy, yet we hold onto these truths: God calls us to give (to tithe); we reap generously when we sow generously (2 Corinthians 9.6–7); and everything we give already belongs to God, entrusted to our care (see 1 Chronicles 29.11–13).
