Every day we make decisions about money but not every decision is made with intention When it comes to generosity many of us wrestle with the same questions Where should we give How much should we give And does our giving really make a difference With so many worthy causes competing for our attention generosity can easily become reactive rather than intentional Yet Scripture invites us to see giving as something much greater than another financial habit Intentional generosity is an act of discipleship that connects our resources to God's work in the world Generosity Is Part of God's Purpose [... more]

Turning Good Intentions Into Generosity with Kendra VanderMeulen

Most Christians want to be generous But wanting to give and actually following through are two different things With so many worthy causes competing needs and financial decisions to consider even the best intentions can become overwhelming Without a plan our giving can become reactive rather than purposeful driven more by the requests we receive than by a thoughtful understanding of how God has entrusted us to steward His resources So how can we move from good intentions to meaningful action Kendra VanderMeulen CEO of the National Christian Foundation NCF joined the show today to discuss how developing a thoughtful [... more]

Where Have You Placed Your Security?

The wealth of the rich is their fortified city they imagine it a wall too high to scale Proverbs NIV Money can provide real protection but it can also create a dangerous illusion of security We may begin to believe that enough savings investments or possessions can shield us from whatever life brings In Samuel we encounter a wealthy man named Nabal whose story illustrates the danger of placing too much confidence in earthly riches His experience reminds us that while financial resources are valuable tools they can never provide the ultimate security our hearts desire Nabal A Wealthy Man [... more]

Living in the City of Man Part 1 (Titus 3:1–2)

Choosing Contentment

If there's one word that defines our culture it's more More upgrades More comfort More square footage More of whatever promises to make life a little better Yet despite having more than previous generations could have imagined many of us feel less satisfied than ever Why Because contentment doesn't come from acquiring what's next It's cultivated in the heart right where we are And Scripture reminds us that contentment isn't something we stumble upon It's something we can learn Why More Is Never EnoughWe're all tempted to believe that the next purchase promotion milestone or change in circumstances will finally [... more]

Christianity Behind the Curtain (Luke 6:38-45)

Share a commentIf you have ever looked around and thought I can't believe they did that Jesus has a way of turning the mirror back toward us We open Luke and listen as Jesus pulls the curtain back on what real discipleship looks like when the crowd is gone and the spotlight is off The issue is not how polished we appear but who we are becoming inside because the hidden life always leaks into the public one We walk through four clear marks of spiritual growth First genuine generosity that goes beyond money and shows up in time service [... more]

Defined by Christ, Not Wealth

Money can tell you how much you have but it makes a terrible answer to the question Who am I Wealth is a gift to steward but it was never meant to become our identity Yet in a culture that often measures success by income possessions and financial security it's easy to begin defining ourselves by what we have or what we lack Scripture offers a different perspective In fact some of Jesus' most memorable teachings about wealth reveal what happens when possessions become central to a person's identity When Wealth Becomes Your IdentityHave you ever noticed how Scripture describes [... more]
