Giving

God provides for the ministry of E91 through your faithful tithes and offerings, and your gifts are honored with faithful stewardship, ethical business practices, and accountability to our Leadership Team and Board of Elders. It’s more than keeping the lights on and the gears turning; it’s about taking a step with Jesus and handing Him back what He already owns. And it’s about lives changing through the transformative power of the Gospel in Indianapolis and beyond.

"The point is this: whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that having all sufficiency in all things at all times, you may abound in every good work." - 2 Corinthians 9:6-8

If you call East 91st Street Christian Church your home, we encourage you to give generously, confident that money is being used to support the mission of Jesus Christ, both locally at E91 and around the world.

Money and Church can be a touchy subject, but it doesn't have to be. We don't give because God needs our money, and we don't give because the church needs our money. It's much bigger than that. We give because God asked us to, and following through shows that we have faith and trust in him to provide. Because God wants to be first in our lives, he asks us to trust Him with our money. What you give should be decided between you and God, and pray that you give from a worshipful heart.

Prayerfully consider:

Matthew 6:19-21: "Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."
