We SERVE with uncommon generosity by giving our time, spiritual gifts, and financial resources.
We understand that every good and perfect gift comes from God, that he has blessed us generously, and that he calls us to serve with a generosity that is beyond ourselves and from God. We give our time with uncommon generosity as we share, pray, care, mentor, support, and listen to each other. We serve with our God-given SHAPE (Spiritual gifts, Heart, Abilities, Personality, and Experiences) in a variety of ministries in the church and in the world. We give our financial resources with uncommon generosity by regularly tithing a portion of our income, enthusiastically responding to ministry needs or gifting enduring gifts beyond our lifetime.
S.H.A.P.E. (Spiritual Gifts, Heart, Abilities, Personality, and Experience)
We are all blessed by God with a SHAPE that can help inform us about the areas we can serve and give in a way that is honoring to God. He has given each of us a unique emotional deisre and motivation to make a difference in the world. When we serve in our area of "heart", we are motivated, effective, energized, and our commitment is effortless.
If you don't already know your SHAPE, we have developed some inventory tools that you can use to help find your most effective place of service and influence. (SHAPE Assessments»)

Throughout Scripture, we are reminded of the importance of giving back a portion of what God has so generously provided. God tells us that giving is an act of worship and it should be done with joy and thanksgiving. (more»)
