How Rock Church Cultivates Generosity as Discipleship Using Tithely

About Rock Church

Rock Church is a vibrant, diverse community rooted in San Diego—extending its reach to cities like Oahu, and powerful online ministry. Their guiding mission is clear: help people Know God, Grow in Community, and Make a Difference. Generosity is not just a financial practice—it’s integral to their discipleship pathway and identity.

The Challenge

Rock Church views generosity as a vital part of spiritual growth—and that view comes with unique expectations:

• Generosity as discipleship — Giving is described as a privilege and an expression of transformation, not an obligation.
• Multiple giving methods needed — Rock offers giving via their website, SMS/email (legacy Mogiv system), free will creation, vehicle donations, and asset transfers, each catering to different donor preferences.
• Visible Kingdom impact — Supporters want to see how their gifts translate into story-driven impact—ministries like Toys for Joy, Chaplain outreach, youth camps, and global missions.

The church needed a unified, trustworthy giving solution that honored the spiritual significance of generosity and worked across diverse donor preferences.

The Tithely Solution

Rock Church turned to Tithely to streamline and reinforce their generosity culture:

• Centralized, guest-friendly giving – The “Give Now” button takes donors into Tithely, offering seamless one-time or recurring gifts without navigating multiple platforms.
• Support for asset-based giving – Tithely fits alongside Rock’s existing options for legacy gifts, assets, and vehicle donations, preserving donor choice while offering a modern digital core.
• Enhanced transparency – With Tithely as a central hub, staff can report easily on how generosity is powering ministries—like outreach, discipleship, and Kingdom impact.

The Impact

Since integrating Tithely:

• Generosity aligned with discipleship – Giving becomes an intentional part of a believer’s journey, not a transactional moment.
• Consistent donor experience – Whether giving online or via mobile, donors enjoy a unified, intuitive interface that reflects the church’s values.
• Better visibility into ministry impact – Donations funnel through Tithely help Rock showcase real-time metrics—like how many lives were impacted, food distributed, and decisions made.
• Reduced administrative complexity – Automated reporting from Tithely lets staff focus more on ministry and less on reconciling giving across systems.

Why It Matters

Rock Church demonstrates the power of giving when it’s deeply framed in discipleship. When generosity is made seamless, transparent, and spiritually formative, churches nurture not just contributions, but transformed hearts.
