Tithing at Redemption
When we consider how our resources align with our faith, the practice of tithing often emerges as a significant talking point. Far from a mere financial transaction, a deeper look into the theology of giving reveals that it as a dynamic spiritual discipline that shapes our families, our church, and our neighborhood.
Redemption teaches that practices like tithing are not simply individualistic duties but communal disciplines that form us into a people distinct from the prevailing culture, inviting us to embody a different way of life together. Similarly, giving is not merely a Christian practice, but is an act deeply rooted in covenant faithfulness and a bold declaration against the narratives of scarcity. It becomes a participation in God’s own abundant provision and a commitment to justice for all. Finally, we want to invite you to see that our generosity is a vital aspect of spiritual formation, a way to cultivate trust in God and align our inner lives with the tangible realities of God's reign, freeing us from the grasp of possessions.
Traditional Giving
Setting Up Recurring Gifts Through Church Center
For those who wish to offer consistent support to Redemption Church, setting up a recurring gift through our Church Center app or website is a convenient and meaingful way to do so. Simply open Church Center on your mobile device or visit the website, then navigate to the "Give" section. You'll enter the amount you wish to contribute per interval, then select your preferred frequency (e.g., weekly, bi-weekly, monthly). Choose the fund you'd like your ongoing gift to benefit, and finally, input your payment details. This allows for steady generosity that helps sustain the ongoing work and mission of Redemption Church.
Covering Online Giving Fees
When you make a gift online through Church Center, there are small fees charged by payment processors to securely handle the transaction. These fees are common for all digital payments.
You have the opportunity to ensure your entire gift goes directly to Redemption Church's mission. Simply check the box provided during the giving process to cover these small processing fees. This means the church won't be charged for the transaction, and your generosity will have its full impact. Thank you for considering this!
