In this 4th episode of the Joyful Giving podcast, we discuss the work of Campus Outreach on UNT campus in Denton, Texas. Before we spend time discussing their wonderful work, we'll turn to the word of God - Acts 11:27-30 - to ask, "Who does God call to give?" and "Does God really need our money?"

Episode 4: Does God need our money? Plus, Chay with Campus outreach at UNT

Western Christianity has lost its way in terms of generosity--forgetting (or never realizing) that every second of time, every special talent, and every penny of gain is from God and for God. He has graciously given us this time, talent, and treasure for our daily bread--no more and no less (Proverbs 30:8-9)--but the surplus is for His glory. We have been lulled into this mis-stewardship by common, earthly sentiment like "You've got to support your family!" while living in a three-thousand-square-foot house on a golf course. No condemnation, just biblical truth: we are mismanaging His provision.

HowGiving founder Greg Dean is a voice and advocate for a true selfless life following Jesus. Giving is a diatribe directed to the Western Christian, shouting from the mountaintop, "We must die to self, pick up our cross, and follow Him--including being as generous as He has been generous."
