The Mind of Investment
Every spending decision is a spiritual decision. If we are to develop a mind of investment, we have to realize that everything belongs to God - even our finances. And if all our finances belong to God, we must make sure that how we spend what he gave us glorifies him. You've heard a bunch what to do with the 10% of your money, but listen to hear what to do with the other 90%.

God's Burglar Alarm Is Sounding
God is being robbed every moment of every day. He is being robbed of more than just tithes too.

The Heart of Stewardship
Every financial decision you make is either a credit to your spiritual life or a debit from your spiritual life. Money is one of those areas that cause many headaches in our lives, but God has many commands concerning your finances that actually are meant to free you. The heart of stewardship begins with you realizing that everything you have belongs to God.

Beyond Us
We grow in knowing God through the practice of generosity. Generosity based on commitment puts us in one of the best greenhouses to grow authentic faith. Each time we make a commitment and keep it, we grow spiritually. Every time we write out a check, there will be a test. It’s a test of our faith.

10-FEB-2008 Fools Rush In
How does a man rob God? By not bringing into the storehouse your tithes and offerings. This is one of the few instances in the bible when the Lord Almighty says "Test me in this, and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that you will not have room enough for it."

Asking the Right Question
Becoming wise in our financial decision making requires we ask the right question. Typically we ask, "Can I ...?" We need to ask, "Should I ...?" In order to get the right answer to "Should I...?", we need to invite God to be a part of our financial decisions.

Committed to Returning God’s Tithes
Would you be more encouraged to attend our church, Bible Church International, if we don’t have the collection of tithes and offerings? You see, there are some people who have the tendency to think that the sure way to fill up a church is to avoid the teaching of tithing. However, personally, I would do my best to avoid a church that does not teach me how to be obedient to God and keeps me from experiencing God’s blessings. This is the reason why I teach tithing without apologies. I really believe that God has taught this truth in the Bible.

Gift
God doesn't need our money. In the area of contributing, He is more concerned about our hearts than the dollar amount. II Corinthians 9:5-7 teaches the principle of planned giving. We are to plan our giving (need for budget) in order that our gifts can be cheerfully offered. However, planning can never exclude our hearts. God loves a cheerful giver and despises a begrudged heart. All our gifts (worship, prayer, time in serving, and money) are to be offered in cheerfulness.

Seed
Imagine an ancient farmer scattering seed on the ground. What are sowing lessons that we need to learn when it comes to giving? First, there is a mystery of reproduction. No one can truly explain why a tiny seed grows into a massive tree. Second, farmers use their brain. Freestyle farming leads to poverty. Instead, the wise farmer uses the practices that maximize the harvest. Third, farmers are looking for the biggest harvest possible. In that interest, they set aside the minimum amount needed to feed their family and plants the rest. This is opposite to our culture's approach to building wealth. Based on Proverbs, if we have nothing it may come from a lack of generosity. Worry will cause us to hoard, but Jesus calls us to not worry. God will not abandon us but provide for His kids. Our priority is to seek Him first.

Banking on the Eternal
In light of our celebration and affirmation of the saints who have gone on to glory, we ought to reflect on how and where we have invested our lives. Stewardship is God's prescription to keep us invested in the things of God.

The Joy of the Journey Comes by Understanding Responsibilities
Christ followers have the responibility according to Scripture to bring God a tenth of their income, which is the original standard of giving established by God. The New Testament takes our responsibility of giving to God to a higher level. God gives us the opportunity to "test-drive" the program He has instituted because He promises blessings as we give, but we must keep things in the proper perspective.

What's God Got to Do With My Money part 2
When we look at money through the lens of the gospel we see that its primary purpose is to glorify God. One of the ways we glorify God with our resources is through giving to the local church. Listen in as we look at 2Corinthians 8 and 9 to see why, how, and how much God desires we give.

Expansion Project
God is glorified when we are obedient to his commands, including his command to give, and especially when we give sacrificially. Giving is a work of grace that we are to pursue. The grace of giving benefits us by laying up treasure in heaven, helping us to mortify materialism and covetousness, and by allowing us to partner in the gospel.

Wealth & Poverty
Scriptures view of wealth and poverty simply cannot be squeezed into our contemporary economic options. We must recognize not only the dangers of wealth, but also the great potential that wealth brings for caring for the poor and needy. And while we realize that poverty can be the result of sloth, Proverbs reminds us that the rich have a responsibility to care for the poor.

Freely and Cheerfully Given
Everything on the Earth belongs to God, and He has given us our possessions as gifts, so we should worship Him with these gifts by managing them well and giving them freely towards His kingdom. We should not give out of guilt but instead we should pray about how much we should give and then cheerfully contribute to God’s work.

Steve Martin is Wrong
The average American spends 92% of their income each month paying off debts and obligations and a mere 2.1% of giving to the church, missions, and the poor combined. We need a stragegy to flip those numbers.
