We Affirm

The Global Generosity Movement is not an organization – it is a movement made up of networks, organizations and churches that seek to grow in biblical generosity.  All of the groups on this page affirm the declaration below.

THE GENEROSITY DECLARATION

Our commitment to Biblical generosity

We affirm that:
• God is indescribably generous. We see this in his creation and experience it in his redemption plan through the life, death, resurrection and ascension of Jesus Christ (John 3:16).
• God is creator, sustainer and owner of all things (Psalm 24:1). He has supplied His infinite resources to us to steward for His Kingdom purposes, including to reach the ends of the earth for the glory of His name (Luke 12:42- 48; Revelation 7:9-12).
• Just as Jesus lived a truly and perfectly generous life to serve and save people (Mark 10:45, 2 Corinthians 9:8-9), it remains fundamental therefore, that Christians model Biblical service, generosity and stewardship (Mark 10:45, 1 Corinthians 4:1, 2 Corinthians 9:8-9)

We, therefore, commit ourselves to foster a culture of Biblical generosity and stewardship that will transform individuals and communities as we:
• Recognise that generosity is made manifest in giving funds, resources, time, talents, gifts, prayer and our very presence.
• Practice holistic stewardship, generous living, and gracious financial giving while encouraging these virtues within our spheres of influence through modeling, teaching and equipping.
• Engage openly with other Christians and their networks in a global movement in which the whole church lives out and takes the whole gospel to the whole world as effective and generous stewards.
