3 Reasons Why Generosity Matters
Join Dean Sweetman and Frank Barry for the premiere episode of Tithe.ly TV.
Generosity is not an afterthought to God—it’s a part of who he is. He can’t help but to be generous. We observe God’s generosity in creation, and we see his generosity revealed in Jesus Christ who graciously gave his life to die for us.
But generosity is something that doesn’t come naturally to most people. We have a tendency to cling tightly to what we have, while we strive to obtain more. Thankfully, through faith in Christ, we are transformed into generous people and we are graciously led by God to reflect his generous character.
For the premiere episode of Tithe.ly TV, Dean Sweetman and Frank Barry talk about:
- Why the church talks so often about money
- 3 reasons why generosity matters
- Why the church offering is an essential act of worship
- Results from a survey of over 1,000 church leaders on what they think about their church’s offering
- 4 steps you can take to improve your church’s offering this week
Dean and Frank also introduce an ongoing segment called “Truth in Love,” where they review a church’s online giving page and provide practical feedback on how they can increase giving in their church.
