In the Bible, we’re encouraged to think of the generosity of God as a motivation for giving (2 Corinthians 8:9). We remember that Jesus defined the concept of generosity when He descended from heaven, lived in our brokenness, and died a humiliating death for us on a cross.
Our gratitude for the death of Jesus (Romans 5:8) and the life that He gave us (Romans 6:5) motivates our generosity. It’s also exciting to take part in something bigger than yourself. With our pooled resources, we are able to make a bigger impact on our city, the nations, and generations than we ever could alone.
