2020 will be remembered as one of the most challenging years for many people. But God has been faithful to us. He never leaves us nor forsakes us (Hebrews 13:5). Therefore, like Moses, we can also say, "Lord, you have been our dwelling place throughout all generations." (Psalm 90:1).

Generosity

Contributed by Chuck Gohn on Jun 24, 2022

Something that we do out of guilt or obligation, but really what we do in response to the love of God and the generosity of God. A generosity that we try to imitate as we seek to be more like Jesus ...read more
