Seek First Foundation

Helping pastors and churches thrive.

How We Help

Seek First Foundation is fully and privately funded. We don’t sell or fundraise at our events, nor do we allow others to do so.

"Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things."
— Matthew 25:21
“Give to the Levites all the tithes in Israel as their inheritance in return for the work they do while serving at the tent of meeting.”
— Numbers 18:21
“To whom much is given, much is required.”
— Luke 12:48
“Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Won’t you first sit down and count the cost to see if you have enough money to complete it?”
— Luke 14:28
“For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.”
— 1 Timothy 6:10
“Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, ‘Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.'”
— Hebrews 13:5
