Joyful.Giving

By: Gregory Dean with HowGiving
  • Summary

  • Western Christianity has lost its way in terms of generosity--forgetting (or never realizing) that every second of time, every special talent, and every penny of gain is from God and for God. He has graciously given us this time, talent, and treasure for our daily bread--no more and no less (Proverbs 30:8-9)--but the surplus is for His glory. We have been lulled into this mis-stewardship by common, earthly sentiment like "You've got to support your family!" while living in a three-thousand-square-foot house on a golf course. No condemnation, just biblical truth: we are mismanaging His provision. HowGiving founder Greg Dean is a voice and advocate for a true selfless life following Jesus. Giving is a diatribe directed to the Western Christian, shouting from the mountaintop, "We must die to self, pick up our cross, and follow Him--including being as generous as He has been generous."

  • Episode 9 - Intentional Giving, and Blue Haven Ranch
    Sep 30 2024

    In this episode of The Joyful.Giving Podcast, we cover INTENTIONAL giving. Just like getting in shape (which is good for us, too), we must take intentional steps to be more generous. Our default is selfish and fearful. But God did not give us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control. (2 Timothy 1:7) We'll then spend time with Dr. Bryan Schlackman of Blue Haven Ranch.
