“Take nothing for your journey,” he instructed them. “Don’t take a walking stick, a traveler’s bag, food, money, or even a change of clothes."
- Luke 9:3
- Luke 9:3
We believe that giving is not so much about keeping the doors of the church open as it is putting ourselves into situations what allow us to see and experience God in our lives in strong and powerful ways. Jesus sent His disciples out two-by-two... without money, without food, without clothing. He sent them out in a posture that forced them to rely totally and completely on God's provision... if God didn't show up... things weren't going to end well. And God showed up.
God wants the same from us... that we come to the point in our lives where our faith grows to the point where we can totally rely on Him. In today's world, the best way to accomplish that is through giving... returning a part of what God has given us to further His work and build our faith.

Tithing
When you tithe, you’re trusting God with your finances.
Tithing is a biblical principle. God calls us to give the first 10% of our income back to Him. We’ve seen God provide abundantly in our church, and we know He will provide abundantly for you and your family when you put Him first in your finances. In fact, it’s the one area in the Bible where God tells you to test Him.
"Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this,” says the Lord Almighty, “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it." Malachi 3:10 NIV

A Tithing Church
At Denton's Chapel we take the promise God gives us in Malachi 3:10 seriously. God's promises will never fail. So our leadership team has decided that Denton's Chapel as a church will be a "tithing church." What does this mean? It means that 10% of EVERY offering we receive will be donated to a worthy ministry OUTSIDE our church. We are confident that as a church we are better off with God's promises and 90% of our weekly offering than we would be without God's promises and 100%.
