Giving At Cornerstone

"For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." - Matthew 6:21

Everything we have has been entrusted to us by God.

We believe our role is to manage his resources wisely for the glory of Christ. We are called to invest in the eternal Kingdom of God, not just this world. Generosity is a tangible way to put our faith and trust in God.

At Cornerstone, we believe that generosity flows from a heart transformed by God’s grace. Stewardship isn’t about guilt, but giving with a cheerful heart in response to the freedom, joy, and eternal purpose that Christ gives us freely.

How We Practice Generosity

At Cornerstone, we encourage living a life of generosity that honors God. Here’s how we practice it:
  1. Give First: Our first priority is to honor God by aligning our hearts with His priorities. (Proverbs 3:9)
  2. Save Second: We save strategically to better prepare ourselves, while building wealth to give more. (Proverbs 21:20)
  3. Live Simply: By living intentionally within our means, we align our hearts with contentment and gratitude. (1 Timothy 6:6)
