Money touches almost every aspect of our lives, but sometimes Christians are <\/span>uncomfortable with engaging this topic within the church. The Bible speaks to us <\/span>extensively on money matters, so Kingwood Church believes we should take a <\/span>leading role in training our people to manage finances God\u2019s way. Managing money <\/span>is one of the tools God uses to bring us to spiritual maturity and eternal fruitfulness.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

But since you excel in everything\u2014in faith, in
\nspeech, in knowledge, in complete earnestness
\n<\/span>and in the love we have kindled in you \u2014see
\nthat you also excel in this grace of giving.<\/span>
\n<\/span>2 Corinthians 8:7<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Kingwood\u2019s approach to helping people in the area of finances is rooted in the belief <\/span>that God wants something for you, not something from you. And while giving is an <\/span>important part of biblical instruction, honoring God with your finances is about more <\/span>than donating money to your church. A holistic view of God\u2019s financial plan for our <\/span>lives involves having a long-term plan for reducing debt, spending wisely, budgeting, <\/span>and saving for the future.

\n<\/span> No matter what your present relationship with money is, the resources offered on this <\/span>page can help you move toward greater financial health. <\/span>Manage well!<\/b><\/span><\/i><\/b><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

<\/b>1.for.1 Club<\/b> – Giving is a demonstration of our understanding of God\u2019s ownership (Psalm 24:1) and our trust and gratitude for his provision in our lives. Yet, giving does not come naturally or easily for many of us, and is a grace to be cultivated through obedience to God\u2019s Word. Looking at the chart below, where would you evaluate yourself to be as a giver?<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The good news is that, wherever you are in relation to giving, there is always opportunity for growth. At Kingwood, the 1.for.1 Club<\/strong> is a 12-month journey of engaging in a Biblical dialogue about finances to help you grow in financial health and freedom. We hope you will find that the process is even more spiritual than it is financial. For\u00a0new givers <\/strong>we invite you to also take a step of faith and commit to give 1% of your income for the year: 1.for.1.<\/span><\/p>\n

Regardless of where you are on the tithing journey, if you would like to grow in financial\u00a0health, <\/span>join the 1.for.1 Club today!<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n
