    A Small Idea To Help Make You Big In Generosity

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Aug 9, 2006
    based on 3 ratings
     | 1,946 views

    Paul’s call here for the Corinthians to give generously provides a great idea for us to expand our giving.

    A Small Idea: “Set up a Generosity Fund.” - v. 2. - This passage is not about tithing to your church. It’s about a specific need in a specific church and the Corinthians choosing to give to help meet that need. Obviously, they were taking care of the needs of their own people as well, so this ...read more

    This message was preached at our 20th Anniversary and reflects on the birth of the Corinthian Church and Cornerstone

    A Church Birthed in Generosity I’ve always been intrigued with the Corinthian Church. A church with problems, you don’t have to read very far through the letters addressed to the church to discover that they struggled with “issues”. Theological issues, moral issues, ...read more

    The Giving Game.

    The son of a Baptist preacher, J.C Penney was motivated by the golden rule. His first store was named, Golden Rule store, and he titled his autobiography 50 years with the Golden Rule.

    The Giving Game. 2 Corinthians 8:7NASB I read a biography about the life and legacy of JC Penney, the founder of the department store by the same name. The C in J.C stood for cash, no kidding. But that wasn’t the motivation behind his ...read more

    Part 12 of the Sermon Series, "Rich Man Poor Man in Proverbs"

    "Whoever sows injustice will reap calamity, and the rod of his fury will fail. Whoever has a bountiful eye will be blessed, for he shares his bread with the poor" (Prov. 22:8-9). Proverbs 22:8-9 is about sowing, reaping, planting, and harvesting. Indeed, what you sow, that you shall reap. Here, ...read more

    Giving Our Best For God

    Contributed by Bradford Robinson on Oct 12, 2006

     | 23,473 views

    This is a passage that really speaks for itself. It looks at how much the glass of water meant to David, the great lengths his men went to get it, and how David then gave it to God in worship. Would we be willing to do the same?

    I want you all to turn with me to the book of 2 Samuel 23:13-17, but I’m not going to read it to you right now like we normally do. I want to tell this story and build on it because this is a story that almost preaches itself. It’s a powerful story that shows a lot about the heart of David and ...read more

    Planning our giving is taught in Scripture; it permits us to anticipate our worship.

    “It is superfluous for me to write to you about the ministry for the saints, for I know your readiness, of which I boast about you to the people of Macedonia, saying that Achaia has been ready since last year. And your zeal has stirred up most of them. But I am sending the brothers so that ...read more

    The Spirit Of Christmas: Be Rich, Do Good And Give Generously

    Contributed by Chris Jordan on Dec 9, 2013

    What is the true spirit of Christmas? To do good, be rich in good works, and to give generously to others. When we do this, we will experience abundant joy.

    What You Get When You Give

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Aug 15, 2011
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,247 views

    What happens when you give of your time, talents, and money? Many ministries teach that you will receive a material blessing for material giving. I think they completely miss the mark. Paul, in this chapter, sets out a wonderful pattern of the true result

    Last time we talked about the motivation behind giving, and the process for how to give: it comes from the word “generosity” which means simplicity, sincerity, and singleness. We give who we are, and what we have, back to the Lord who owns it all, for Him to take our simple gifts given ...read more

    "Jesus did that to the extent of surrendering Himself to the Father’s will and dying on the cross for our salvation. You don’t get more other-centered than that."

    Twenty-Second Sunday in Ordinary Time 2016 Almost forty years ago, the movie Alien frightened a couple of generations of Americans with its notion that a monster could grow inside someone’s chest and then burst out to cause death and destruction.

    The Banquet Series

     | 8,488 views

    Jesus' challenge to the host in Luke 14, that he should not invite those who could serve his needs but those whose needs he could serve, challenges the worldly approach to human relationships.

    Luke 14:1-14 "The Banquet" INTRODUCTION The word "Stewardship" has gained an ugly reputation in Christian circles. It is frequently associated with congregational pleas for more money. The word has lost its wholistic dimension. Stewardship, or if you prefer, good management is no longer ...read more

    Generous With Our Prayers Series

     | 9,296 views

    Discipleship and Stewardship are so closely related as to be indistinguishable. We are called to be as generous with our prayers as with our money or service.

    A young man went into a drugstore to buy 3 boxes of chocolate: small, medium, and large. When the pharmacist asked him about the three boxes, he said, “Well, I am going over to my new girlfriend's house tonight for supper. Then, we are going out for the evening.

    Generous With Our Story Series

     | 8,420 views

    A disciple can be generous with our resources, our time and our presence, but the most transformative element of a disciple's life is his/her story. We should be as generous with our story as we are with our money and time.

    Generosity: Possible Generous with Our Story 2 Timothy 1: 1 – 14 It is only natural for us to connect the idea of generosity with money. We automatically think of financial resources when we consider the idea of being generous, but the life of generosity for a disciple of Jesus Christ extends ...read more

    5 Characteristics Of A Generous Church Series

    Contributed by David Henderson on Sep 15, 2014
     | 6,095 views

    Now I want to admit something to you. As a young boy I will admit to you that the first time I tithed I wasn’t sure if I like it or not. Partly I suppose because no one asked me if I wanted to or not. He just chose to give my money away for me. Sort of like the government does.
