When You Give

If you are looking for just the highlights of our study, here you go! Generosity in its simplest form is giving: giving of your time, talent, and treasure toward something or someone you value. Kingdom generosity is a big, big deal. What is at stake here? The financial integrity of the greatest endeavor that humanity has ever participated in—the expansion of the kingdom of God! When Jesus came, He preached and said, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand” (Matt. 4:17). As He ascended back to heaven, He gave His disciples a mandate to spread the gospel to the ends of the earth and to make disciples of all the nations (Matt. 28:18–20). We call that mandate the Great Commission. The Christian family has a responsibility to fulfill this mandate in our generation. This will take time, talent, and treasure. Two of the biggest challenges to the Great Commission are: 1. Christians willing to spread His Word, and 2. Christians willing to give to His work.
