Christian Giving Myths | All In

Many people carry misconceptions about Christian giving. Some believe generosity only happens when there is extra money. Others think it is something reserved for especially committed believers.

In this message from 2 Corinthians 8, we look at the Macedonian churches and discover a different picture of generosity. Their example shows that giving is not driven by pressure or prosperity. It grows from the grace of God at work in a person’s life.

This message challenges common assumptions and invites us to see generosity as a natural response to the grace we have received in Christ.
