The importance of getting plugged in
Grafted by God
The Bible speaks of the Gentiles (everyone who is NOT from the Jewish descent) being grafted in.
Something that IS NOT natural, being added to a different root system or source, then pulling nutrients from the NEW root in order to become part of something that they could not be in and of themselves.

Online Giving
TITHE & OFFERING2 Corinthians 9:7 KJVEvery man according as he purposeth in his heart, [so let him give]; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.
God's people have always been characterized by giving, but the way they've given has changed over time.
Giving is an important aspect of the Christian life. After all, Luke records that Jesus himself said, "It is more blessed to give than to receive" (Acts 20:35).
At Northside, we want to encourage all members to pray about giving and give as God leads them.
