There is both a practical and a philosophical answer to this question. First, the practical answer. There are four collection boxes marked “offerings” in the Lobo (two along the walls just prior to entering the seating section on the lower level, one on the wall in the landing of the balcony and one in the lobby). Just drop your gift in these boxes and they will be collected during communion and then dedicated to God through prayer as we celebrate His grace together.
Now, on to the more philosophical answer to the question “how do I give?” Paul in his second letter to the Corinthians gives us some guidelines (2 Corinthians 9:6-15). We should give prayerfully (seeking God’s direction for the amount), cheerfully (because God loves this) and generously (to the degree in which you must trust God to meet your needs).
So why give? Take a look again at 2 Corinthians 9:12-13. Biblical giving leads to our joy, “overflowing in many expressions of thanks to God”, and to God’s glory, “men will praise God for the obedience that accompanies your confession of the gospel of Christ”.
