…that there may be food in my house. 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" Malachi 3:10

Why should I give?

It is our conviction that those who are committed to the church should give with great generosity to both provide for the work of the church, but also to help the church in its mission to help change London and reach the nations of the world.

In the Old Testament the people of God were called to bring a tenth of their income as a sacrifice to God, also known as a tithe. This was partly a reminder that what they had was given to them from God. The tithe was brought to the temple so that the priests and Levites had food and drink, and it also provided for the work of the temple and the priesthood.

In the New Testament all specifics on giving are taken away and we’re allowed to be as generous as possible! We should reflect God’s generous heart in the way that we give as part of our worship; we are to give regularly and in keeping with our income. We should grow in faith so that we can respond to God with greater generosity.

How should I give?

There is no set rule for giving, but we would encourage all members of ChristChurch London to give by standing order wherever possible. This simply helps us have a clearer idea of the amount of money coming in, which in turn helps us plan more responsibly for the future. Likewise, if you are a UK tax-payer giving to ChristChurch London, we would encourage you to fill in a Gift Aid Form, which enables us to claim the tax back on your giving.
