GIVING PHILOSOPHY

GENEROSITY

Generosity is how we express our gratefulness to God for His saving grace in our lives, and it’s also how we help fund the vision of Enjoy Church. When you live openhanded, freely giving as the Lord leads you, you help us reach more people with the love of Jesus. Your generosity helps us do more to bring people into a life-changing relationship with Jesus, and there is simply no greater impact that we could make together.

 

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you! We are blown away by what God is allowing us to do because of your partnership with us in the mission God has given us. We simply would not be able to reach the people we do without your continued tithing and giving.

We strive to remain transparent in all our financial dealings. If you have any questions about our proposed budget, or about the annually performed external audit of our finances, our Accounting Department can help you. Email us anytime at info@enjoychurch.com, or call (618) 465-5433.

90-DAY TITHING CHALLENGE

90-Day Tithing Challenge

The Bible encourages us to give cheerfully and generously. As followers of God, we are instructed to set aside the tithe, which is the first 10% of our income, for God’s purposes; anything given beyond that first 10% is considered an offering.

 

If you’re ready to deepen your walk with God by trusting Him with your finances, we invite you to take the 90-Day Tithing Challenge!

 

Commit to tithing by bringing the first 10% of your income to Enjoy Church over the next 90 days. At the end of this period, if you haven't experienced God’s blessings or provision because of your obedience, you can request a full refund of what you’ve given to Enjoy Church during that time. It’s a money-back guarantee you can’t beat!

5 COMMON OBJECTIONS TO THE 90-DAY TITHE CHALLENGE

Tithing is only a command in the Old Testament, and does not relate to us under the New Covenant of Jesus.
Can I trust my church with that much money?
I can’t afford to tithe; I’m barely making ends meet.
I give of my time and talents, not my money.
I tithe to other charities, not the church.

EC PROJECTS

THE HOUSE

Goal $225,000

 

Welcome to The House. In this house we see connection, we see life change and we see miracles happen. While the lives that we touch reach into eternity, we must also take time to care for the physical needs of the house.

Your investment into the vision and ministry of Enjoy Church will help us take care of the house so that we can reach more people.

 

“I am amply supplied, now that I have received the gifts you sent. They are a fragrant offering, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God. And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:18-19
