Give

At Mercy Hill, we speak of committing ourselves to God and his church with our time, talent, and treasure. When we receive from his abounding grace as our Savior, when we come under him as the Lord of our lives, it becomes our great privilege and pleasure to simply give back to him all that was his in the first place.

Regarding our treasure in particular, we remember that God owns the cattle on a thousand hills (Ps. 50:10). There is nothing that we can give back to him that he has not already freely given to us (Rom. 11:35). It is utterly impossible to out-give God. All of our possessions are gifts from him and provide opportunity for us to give them back to him in love. We do this by counting our treasure as nothing compared to the surpassing value of knowing Christ (Phil. 3:8); by giving generously and cheerfully to support the church’s worship and work (2 Cor. 9:7); and by giving freely to the unbelieving in hopes that they too will see that a man’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions (Luke 12:15).

Ultimately, we give because he gave—the greatest gift of all to us in his Son. “For  God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life" (John 3:16). "For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that you by his poverty might become rich" (2 Cor. 8:9).

Here are a few ways you can give financially in honor of the Lord and in support of Mercy Hill's mission and ministry:
