It's Not About The Money

Nov 1, 2026  •  Tony Stephens

Talking about money in church can make people uncomfortable. But what does the Bible actually teach about tithing, generosity, and faithful stewardship?


In this message from 2 Corinthians 9:6–11, we examine why giving is about much more than a percentage or an offering plate. It's about recognizing that everything belongs to God, understanding what our financial priorities reveal about our hearts, and learning to give faithfully and joyfully.


In this message, we'll explore:

Everything we have belongs to God.

Giving reveals the condition of our hearts.

Faithful giving is an act of worship and obedience.

What the Old and New Testaments teach about tithing.

How our generosity supports ministry, missions, and the work of the local church.


We'll also consider a challenging question: What would Calvary Baptist Church look like if nobody gave?


Whether you've been giving faithfully for years or are just beginning to understand biblical stewardship, this message will challenge you to examine your heart and honor God with what He's entrusted to you.
