    A Motivation To Give For Small Givers Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Mar 26, 2019
     | 4,561 views

    We are called by Paul to be cheerful givers. That seems ridiculous to many! This passage, though, gives us a great starting point for making that generous attitude happen.

That’s all well and good, many of you are thinking, but who exactly is joyful about giving to the offering plate? It’s hard for many to believe that there are ...read more

There would be no question of bad blood ...read more
