Biblical Giving · Tithes & Offerings
Christian ministry giving is the biblical practice of financially supporting ministries that preach the Gospel, pray for the sick, train believers, and serve communities in Jesus' name. It encompasses tithes, offerings, and charitable gifts given to faith-based organizations that advance God's Kingdom on earth.
When you give to a Christian ministry, you're not just making a donation — you're partnering in something eternal. Your generosity becomes prayer for someone in crisis, prophetic training for a hungry believer, food for a family in need, and the Gospel reaching someone who has never heard it.
At Sheldon Maddix Ministries, Christian ministry giving fuels everything we do — from daily prayer over every name on our Prayer Wall of Faith, to free prophetic resources that reach seekers worldwide, to community outreach in Brooklyn and global evangelism to the nations.
Giving is woven throughout Scripture as an act of worship, obedience, and trust in God's provision. From the firstfruits of the Old Testament to the cheerful giving commended in the New Testament, God's people have always been called to support the work of ministry through their generosity.
The Apostle Paul made it clear that those who benefit from ministry have a responsibility to support it financially. When you give to a Christian ministry, you're fulfilling a biblical mandate and participating in the Gospel's advance around the world.
"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."
— 2 Corinthians 9:7
"The one who is taught the word share all good things with the one who teaches."
— Galatians 6:6
"Honor the Lord with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all your crops."
— Proverbs 3:9
There are several ways to give to a Christian ministry, each with its own biblical foundation and purpose:
The biblical practice of giving one-tenth of your income to the local church or ministry. The tithe is an act of worship, trust, and obedience, acknowledging that everything we have comes from God (Malachi 3:10).
Voluntary gifts given above and beyond the tithe to support specific ministries, missions, or causes. Offerings are driven by generosity and a desire to see God's work expand.
A single donation given as the Lord leads — for a specific need, a special campaign, or a first-time act of generosity. Every one-time gift makes a meaningful difference.
Recurring monthly giving that provides consistent, reliable support for ministry operations and outreach. Monthly partners are the backbone of sustained ministry.
Gifts designated for specific outreach efforts, such as community outreach, missions trips, or seasonal campaigns like our birthday outreach.
Non-monetary gifts such as goods, services, or professional expertise that support the ministry's practical needs.
There are many Christian ministries doing good work. Here's what makes Sheldon Maddix Ministries a worthy recipient of your generosity: we believe that prayer should always be free, that prophetic ministry should serve people — not exploit them — and that every gift should be stewarded with transparency and integrity.
When you give to Sheldon Maddix Ministries, your generosity directly supports daily prayer intercession, free prophetic training resources, community outreach in Brooklyn, and global evangelism through online ministry. We don't use aggressive fundraising tactics or manipulate people into giving. We simply invite those who share our vision to partner with us.
Christian ministry giving is an investment in eternity. While the world measures success in profits and returns, the Kingdom of God measures it in transformed lives, answered prayers, and souls reached with the Gospel. Here's what your giving to Sheldon Maddix Ministries accomplishes:
Every morning, we pray over every name on our Prayer Wall of Faith. Your giving ensures that daily intercession continues without interruption — for people in crisis, in need, and seeking God.
We create and share prophetic training, fasting guides, prayer points, and teaching articles — all free. Your giving makes these resources accessible to anyone, anywhere, regardless of their financial situation.
We serve our local community through practical support, prayer, and the love of Christ. Your giving puts faith into action in tangible, meaningful ways.
From Brooklyn to the Philippines to Jamaica, your giving helps us preach the Gospel of the Kingdom through online ministry, media outreach, and missions.
Christian ministry giving is the practice of financially supporting faith-based ministries that preach the Gospel, pray for the sick, train believers, and serve communities. It includes tithes (10% of income), offerings (gifts above the tithe), one-time donations, and monthly partnerships. At Sheldon Maddix Ministries, your giving supports prayer, prophetic training, community outreach, and global evangelism.
Yes. Scripture consistently teaches that those who benefit from ministry should support it financially. Galatians 6:6 says, 'The one who is taught the word share all good things with the one who teaches.' 1 Timothy 5:17-18 also instructs that elders who preach and teach are worthy of double honor. Giving to Christian ministry is a biblical way to partner in the Gospel's advance.
A tithe is traditionally one-tenth (10%) of one's income given to the local church or ministry, as taught in Malachi 3:10. An offering is a voluntary gift given above and beyond the tithe to support a specific ministry, mission, or cause. Both are biblical forms of Christian giving. At Sheldon Maddix Ministries, we welcome both tithes and offerings.
