how we'll get there :: First Baptist Church • Jacksonville, Alabama

how we’ll get there

The only way we can reach our goal is for each family to accept the call of sacrificial giving. This means giving beyond your regular tithes. It is a reording of spending, comforts, and priorities. Our prayer is not for equal gifts but for equal sacrifices from every family.

what we need

We need to cover our campaign in prayer so that each family can respond to God’s call according to His will. Pray that everything we do as a church will be consistent with God’s design and His holy Word. Also pray about your family’s sacrificial gift, and have faith that God will provide. We want everyone to participate in this important event in the life of our church and catch the vision for the things God has in store for us!

individual responsibility

ThinkBig will be a three-year journey for our church. Our desire is that members make a commitment to give sacrificially over this course of time. This commitment will begin on May 18th with our “First Fruits” Sunday when each family will bring a portion of their three-year commitment.

ways to give

Your contribution may take several forms: cash, stocks or bonds, property, etc. We encourage you to be creative as you explore ways to be a part of ThinkBig. Below you will find examples of how your monthly gifts will multiply over the course of three years.
