Overflow Church · Generosity
"Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver."
— 2 Corinthians 9:7

Giving boxes are available in the lobby every Sunday during all services.
The Heart of Giving · Three Truths
Two Expressions of Generosity
A tithe simply means "tenth", 10% of your income. We believe this is the biblical starting point for generosity that continues throughout Scripture, including the New Testament (Matthew 23:23).
The tithe isn't a tax, it's an act of trust. It's declaring: "God, I believe You are my Provider, not my paycheck."
Matthew 23:23 · Malachi 3:10
Offerings are anything given above and beyond the tithe, Spirit-led moments in response to a need, an opportunity, or a prompting from God.
And we recognize that generosity is a journey. If you're just beginning, the first step may be starting to give consistently, even at a smaller percentage, and growing from there over time.
2 Corinthians 9:6–8 · Luke 21:1–4
"While people may handle the offering, it is ultimately received by Jesus Himself."
Hebrews 7:8

Nothing Hidden
Your generosity is handled with accountability at every level. We take seriously the trust that comes with giving, and we are committed to honoring God, and you, with how every resource is managed.
Five external overseers, none of whom attend or are on staff at Overflow, review and approve our annual budget, all salary changes, and any purchase over $20,000.
All accounting is handled by Kari Hubb (led by Jeremy Brown), an independent organization that sees every transaction, provides financial guidance, and ensures wise stewardship. Nothing is hidden.
Got Questions?
Not at all. Giving is an act of worship, not a membership fee. We never want anyone to feel pressure or obligation. Come, belong, grow, and give when and if God moves you to.
A tithe means "tenth", 10% of your income, and we believe it's a biblical starting point for generosity. But we also recognize that generosity is a journey. If 10% feels out of reach right now, start where you can and grow from there. What matters most is that giving comes from the heart, not from a specific number.
Your giving fuels weekly ministry (Sunday services, Overflow Kids, Overflow Youth), community care, small groups, Celebrate Recovery, Meal Train, and more. On top of that, we give 10% of all church income straight back into our community, supporting local nonprofits and individuals in need, both inside and outside our church.
No. We don't give to get, and we don't treat God like a formula for wealth. We do believe Scripture speaks about financial blessing, but the ultimate goal of generosity is never personal gain. We believe in a life of generosity, trusting that as we give, God provides what we need and uses us to bless others (2 Corinthians 9:6–8). Giving is about participation in God's mission, not personal prosperity.
Overflow has five external overseers (none of whom attend or work at our church) who approve our annual budget and any purchase over $20,000. Our accounting is handled independently by Kari Hubb, led by Jeremy Brown, who reviews every transaction and ensures wise stewardship. Nothing is hidden. We're committed to full transparency.
Yes. Recurring giving is available online and makes consistent generosity simple. You can set up weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly gifts in just a few clicks at give.overflow.church. It's a great way to make generosity a regular spiritual discipline.
