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:

“You’re asking the wrong question. You’re obsessed with getting bigger. The question isn’t how to grow. The question is how to get better. If we get better, customers will demand we get bigger.”
• Focus on substance. Not optics.
• Focus on quality. Not perception.
• Focus on what’s real. Not what’s visible.

Reality #2: You Cannot Clean Your Own Heart
Reality #3 A Clean Heart Changes What You See
Action Steps for this Week:
If integrity matters more than image… then this week isn’t about trying harder. It’s about getting honest.
Action Steps:
1.Name What You’ve Been Hiding.
This week, I want you to name it. Not manage it. Not minimize it. Just Name it.
• The habit.
• The resentment.
• The compromise.
• The insecurity.
Write it down. Say it in prayer. Bring it into the light. Because hidden things grow. Named things shrink.
2. Invite Jesus Into the Part You’ve Kept Off-Limits
Most of us have given Jesus access to 80% of our lives. This week, ask Him about the 20%. Pray something simple… “Jesus, what part of my heart have I kept from You?”
Then sit in silence. Let Him surface it.
• Don’t argue.
• Don’t justify.
• Don’t defend.
Just surrender it.
3. Take One Visible Step Toward Integrity
Integrity grows when private surrender becomes public alignment. Encourage something specific…
• Confess to someone you trust.
• Make the phone call you’ve been avoiding.
• Delete what needs deleting.
• End the conversation you shouldn’t be having.
• Schedule the counseling appointment.
• Tell your spouse the truth.
One step. Not overhaul your whole life. Just one obedient move.
Storm-proofing your foundation starts with one shovel of rock.
