Accountability – Accountability is the value that will keep you on

your toes, and always aware of the condition of your finances. It is

the ability to be wilfully transparent and responsible for your

finances. Being liable and answerable to your financial affairs.

Proverbs 27:23 Know well the condition of your flocks, And pay

attention to your herds;

Being accountable is living within a budget, doing all deals on top

of the table with respect of keeping account, taking full

responsibility for all obligations and financial actions that you have

taken.

Luke 16:10-12 “If you are faithful in little things, you will be faithful in

large ones. But if you are dishonest in little things, you won‟t be

honest with greater responsibilities. And if you are untrustworthy

about worldly wealth, who will trust you with the true riches of

heaven? And if you are not faithful with other people‟s things, why

should you be trusted with things of your own?

Faithfulness – What makes faithfulness a core value is the fact that

we as children of the living God shouldn‘t be partial in any way.

A pastor was asked to define “faithful church involvement.” He replied: All I ask is that we

apply the same standards to our church activities that we apply to other areas of life. If your

car started three out of four times, would you call it a faithful car? If you didn’t show up at

work two or three times a month, would your boss call you faithful? If your refrigerator quit a

day every now and then, would you say, “Oh well, it works most of the time”? If your geyser

greeted you with cold water one or two mornings a week when you were in the shower,

would you say it was faithful? And yet we’re hit and miss about our giving, our involvement

in ministry and worship toward God, and we somehow think we’re being faithful!

Ezekiel 18:9 If he walks in My statutes and My ordinances so as to

deal faithfully--he is righteous and will surely live," declares the Lord

GOD.
