Welcome to the weekend, and welcome to the Saturday 7.
The early church practiced giving in ways that are not too far removed from how we do now, even responding sacrificially in times of crisis. There are lessons we can learn from them – things like planning and strategizing, as well as faithfulness and collaboration – that can help us faithfully steward everything God has given us.
Join us in celebrating our givers in the Rocky Mountains area, who, by God’s grace, surpassed $300,000,000 in grants to charities and churches since 2012.
What role does an entrepreneur have in times of turmoil? And how can we, as the body of Christ, stand strong in the face of evil and uncertainty? Learn principles for challenging times from a Ukrainian business owner who chose to stay.
"Is there such a thing as a giving high?" Clyde Lear compares the incredible feeling an entrepreneur gets from doing a great deal with how he and his wife, Sue, felt when they saw the fruit of their gift.
At the Prezmysl train station – just eight miles from Ukraine's border – Polish mothers left strollers stocked with supplies for the moms who would arrive in desperate need of them. This is generosity!
