• Give as an Offering to God:
    When the Apostle Paul thanked the Philippian church for the gifts that they had sent him as an investment in his ministry of the Gospel, he described their gifts as “a fragrant offering, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God” (Philippians. 4:18).
  • Give Cheerfully:
    God expects us to give willingly, joyfully, and generously. Paul describes the willing giver in 2 Corinthians 9:7 by saying, “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.”
  • Give with Honest motives:
    1 Chronicles 29:17 God expects us to give “…willingly and with honest intent…”. Without drawing attention … keeping it between you and God (Matthew 6:1-4).
  • Give with broad Vision:
    In Acts 1:8b, Jesus focuses his followers on the vision “…you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
    In Romans 10:15a we are asked: “And how can anyone preach unless they are sent?” Each person must consider their part in ministry, for the sake of the kingdom.

What NCEM Believes About Finances:
  • God is our Provider, … He will move through His people to meet every need, as long as we and our supporters are walking faithfully with Him.
  • We are stewards of all that comes into the ministry…we will give an account of it to the Lord.
  • We have a responsibility to inform our supporters about where our finances are invested.
  • NCEM is a nonprofit Christian ministry. It belongs to God, not to any of its members. If He ever chooses to close it down, we will accept His leading. In such an event, it is our intent that all assets will go to another Christian ministry – not to any individuals associated with NCEM.
