Generous giving responds to a generous God. ‘We need to give rather than give to need’
Living generously requires abundant love: • love for God • love for neighbour • love for God’s work
Four ‘yardsticks’: • Setting giving in the context of income • Seeing an impact on lifestyle • Ensuring Giving is a priority – the ‘firstfruits’ • When if it was given back, it would make a real difference.
