The Joy Of Giving Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Apr 29, 2023

The book of Philippians is, to a large extent, a thank you note from Paul to the church for their financial gift. We find that it is not only the one who receives the gift who is blessed, but the ones who gives the gift are greatly blessed.
