Welcome to the weekend, and welcome to the Saturday 7.
What happens when we surrender everything to God? When Clark Galloway prayed, “Lord, you can have it all,” his entire life changed. That one prayer set him on a path of loss, suffering, and eventually abundance. God took a life that looked successful from the outside and gave back a “life that is truly life” (1 Timothy 6:19). Learn how Clark’s identity was reshaped, and how God proved he can be trusted with all we have.
There’s a simpler way to be more generous. Instead of using a private foundation to accomplish your charitable goals, a Giving Fund (donor-advised fund) at the National Christian Foundation is an easy-to-create, flexible tool that often offers greater tax efficiency, so you can give more to the causes you care about. How does a Giving Fund compare to a private foundation? Explore the differences to discover if a Giving Fund is right for you.
Are you waiting on something big from God? When faced with a season like this, our tendency is to try to escape it. Mark Vroegop, president of The Gospel Coalition, talks about how God uses these experiences and describes how not to waste your waiting. Learn how to remember who God is when you don’t know what’s next in your life.
If you’re a successful business owner, someone longing to own a business, or someone who has failed or is failing at a business, read this book! Learn how, at an extreme low point in his life, Gary Ringger made a commitment to God too big to really think he could keep. Read about the amazing ministry that blossomed from that moment of offering to God what he didn’t yet have. If you’re like us, you’ll finish the book in a day.
Saturday 7 is brought to you by our team at the National Christian Foundation (NCF). We would love to help you create your Giving Strategy™, so you can experience more joy and adventure as you pursue a life of generosity. Find an NCF location near you at ncfgiving.com/locations.
