From the time most of us are young, we’ve seen and been attuned to what we don’t have. We’re inundated with messages of those things or experiences that could make us happier. We want to BE RICH.

That simple perspective shift is a game changer. God has entrusted to us time, abilities and financial resources. In the next two weeks, we'll explore how we can BE RICH in our deeds and with our resources, no matter how much we have.
