How can I contribute to the work of my local church?
Sharing our belongings is a normal part of Christian life. As followers of the Lord Jesus, we want to prayerfully consider how we support the extension of his kingdom and in particular the work of the local church which is at the heart of God's kingdom purposes. We give of our time, our talent and our treasure. New Testament believers contributed to the costs of local Word ministry. They showed local and even international solidarity among believers and they supported missionaries going off to share God's Word in new areas.
Our personal situations and responsibilities are very varied and that is why the New Testament doesn't lay out a specific amount or percentage to give. Rather, we are encouraged to give joyfully and generously with wisdom.
