In this message, Minister Mark Ashton teaches from Genesis 4 and explores the powerful difference between giving God our leftovers and giving him our first and our best. Through the story of Cain and Abel, scripture from Proverbs and Malachi, and personal testimony, this message challenges us to examine what truly comes first in our lives—and in our money.

This teaching goes beyond budgeting tips and gets to the heart of biblical stewardship. You’ll discover why God links generosity to blessing, why tithing was a foundation of worship throughout the Old Testament, and how the New Testament calls believers into lives marked by joyful, generous, and sacrificial giving. Whether you’re new to church, struggling financially, or looking to grow in obedience and trust, this message offers clear next steps for moving from stress to peace and from scarcity to spiritual freedom.

If you’ve ever wondered:
• “Does God really care about my finances?”
• “What does the Bible say about tithing and generosity?”
• “How do I honor God when money is tight?”

This message will help you rethink your relationship with money and invite God’s blessing into every part of your life.
