Stewardship Adult Forum:Generosity as a Spiritual Practice ​

 

What if generosity is more than something we do? What if it’s a way we can grow closer to God? ​Join us for a four-part series exploring generosity as a spiritual practice. A spiritual practice is a habit or discipline that we intentionally develop to open our hearts to God and shape our lives as followers of Christ. ​

 

October 25: Emotional Generosity — Giving the gifts of compassion, encouragement, forgiveness, and presence.

November 1: Generosity of Time — Considering how we give our most precious and limited resource.

November 8: Financial Generosity — Exploring our relationship with money and the spiritual freedom that comes from giving.

November 15: Tax-Advantaged Giving — Learning practical ways to make charitable giving more effective and meaningful with special guest Brian McDonald (CFP, ChFC, CEPA). 4

 

Drawing on More Than Money: The Study of the Spiritual Practice of Generosity by Darren Cushman Wood, The Generosity Paradox by Christian Smith and Hilary Davidson, and scripture, Carolyn Briles will lead the study of how generosity can become not simply an act of giving, but a way of living faithfully and abundantly. ​Gather with us at God’s table and explore how generosity can change not only what we give, but who we are.
