Make an IMPACT
The Bible teaches us that tithing is an act of obedience and that we should trust God with every aspect of our lives, which also includes our finances. Sacrificing a portion of our income helps us look beyond ourselves and makes us more aware of the needs of others. We offer many ways for you to make an IMPACT and give back. Take a look at some of the options below:

Faithfulness
Semper Fi
Semper Fidelis
“Always Faithful”
God isn’t impressed by the size of your return; He’s moved by the sincerity of your effort.
The servant didn’t fail because he tried and lost… he failed because he never tried at all.
Faithfulness isn’t about being perfect; it’s about doing something with what God gave you.
1. Start Small. Stay Steady.
2. Be the Same Person in the Dark as You Are in the Light.
“Be more concerned with your character than your reputation. Your character is what you really are; your reputation is merely what others think you are.”
- Coach John Wooden
- Coach John Wooden
“Well done, good and faithful servant.”
3. Keep Showing Up When It Would Be Easier to Quit.
“They were my kids. You don’t quit on your kids.”
“Faithfulness is a long obedience in the same direction.”
Where have you stopped showing up?
Action Steps for this Week:
Faithfulness isn’t something you feel… it’s something you practice. Here are three ways to put Spirit-driven faithfulness into motion this week:
Action Steps:
1. Stay Close to the Source. Before you scroll, rush, or react… PAUSE.
Take two minutes. Breathe. Let the noise settle. Ask the Spirit to center you, to fill what’s empty, to grow what you can’t fix.
Remember, faithfulness doesn’t start in motion, it starts in stillness.
2. Show Up When It’s Easier to Quit.
There’s always a reason to stop… too tired, too busy, too disappointed. But faithfulness is built when you show up anyway.
Maybe that means praying again, serving again, forgiving again, or giving again… not because it’s easy, but because it matters.
The enemy loves a quitter. The Spirit builds finishers.
3. Finish What God Started.Maybe there’s something you’ve buried… a habit, a calling, a relationship, a step of obedience. Ask God to give you the courage to pick it back up and trust Him with the outcome.
The same Spirit who began a good work in you will be faithful to complete it.
