Money Talks
Week 2: What God Says About Money
 
“The point is this: whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.” 2 Corinthians 9:6-7
 
Helpful books on Biblical Generosity:


The Bible says a lot about money because money says a lot about us.
 
Four Questions About Giving:
1. Why Should We Give?
 
1. We give in response to the Gospel
 
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” John 3:16
 
2. We give because the Bible tells us to
 
The Bible assumes God’s people are giving.
 
“Honor the Lord with your wealth and with the firstfruits of all your produce…” Proverbs 3:9
 
“Will man rob God? Yet you are robbing me. But you say, ‘How have we robbed you?’ In your tithes and contributions. You are cursed with a curse, for you are robbing me, the whole nation of you.” Malachi 3:8-9
 
“‘…the earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it.’” 1 Corinthians 10:26
 
3. We give to get in on what God is doing
 
God fuels the ministry of Hope Church, through the people of Hope Church as they give. 
 
Four Questions About Giving:
2. How Much Should I Give?
 
“Bring the full tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house…” Malachi 3:10a
 
“‘Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you tithe mint and dill and cumin, and have neglected the weightier matters of the law: justice and mercy and faithfulness. These you ought to have done, without neglecting the others.’” Matthew 23:23
 
“Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.” 2 Corinthians 9:7
 
“If you can find a gateway to giving that’s better than the tithe, wonderful.  But if not, why not start where God started His First Covenant people?” Randy Alcorn
 
Three Practices of Wise Financial Stewardship:

1. Give to the Lord
“Honor the Lord with your wealth and with the firstfruits of all your produce…” Proverbs 3:9
 
2. Save for the future
“The wise have wealth and luxury, but the fools spend whatever they get.” Proverbs 21:20 (NLT)
 
3. Budget to live
“The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance, but everyone who is hasty comes only to poverty.” Proverbs 21:5
 
Do you have an intentional plan for how you manage your money that honors the Lord?

Four Questions About Giving:
3. Where Should I Give?  
 
The primary place of giving in the New Testament is the local church.
 

  • Las Vegas Valley Median Household Income = $78,000

  • 3,130 Households at Hope

  • $7,800/household

  • $24,414,000



If every Jesus follower invested in Hope like me, what kind of church would we be?
 
Four Questions About Giving:
4. Can I Afford to Give?
 
In God’s hands, you can actually do more with 90 percent than you can with 100 percent.
 
“‘Bring all the tithes into the storehouse so there will be enough food in my Temple. If you do,” says the LORD of Heaven’s Armies, “I will open the windows of heaven for you. I will pour out a blessing so great you won’t have enough room to take it in! Try it! Put me to the test.’” Malachi 3:10
 
We cannot reject the wisdom of God and expect the blessing of God.
