Think you need more money before you can be generous? In this episode, discover how generosity isn't about the size of your bank account, it's about the posture of your heart and trust in God's provision.

Have you ever thought, "I'll start giving more once I have more"?

It's easy to believe that generosity is something reserved for people with extra margin, those who have paid off their debts, built up their savings, and finally feel "comfortable." But that day rarely comes. There's always another bill, another goal, another reason to hold back. And slowly, fear disguises itself as wisdom while your grip on money gets tighter.

In this episode, we look at the story of Dave and Sharon Ramsey, who made a decision that defied logic: surrounded by bills, creditors calling, and bankruptcy looming, they chose to tithe first. Through their story and the truth of 2 Corinthians 9:6–7, you'll see that generosity isn't about having enough—it's about trusting the God who is enough. When you decide in your heart, give without reluctance, and release your resources cheerfully, something shifts, not just in your finances, but in your soul.

BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU'LL DISCOVER:

1. Why waiting until you're "comfortable" to be generous usually means you'll never start
2. How 2 Corinthians 9:6–7 reframes giving as a heart posture, not a financial formula
3. A simple way to ask God what He would have you give and take the first step of cheerful generosity
4. Generosity isn't something you graduate into; it's something you grow into, one open-handed decision at a time.
