In this episode, Jim is joined by Hunter Dockery, master storyteller and member of Serge's Development team. Hunter and Jim dive into what it means to live generously and how God's boundless grace empowers us to give extravagantly. From stories of missionaries in remote parts of the world experiencing God's provision to personal journeys of faith and surrender, this episode will surely challenge our perspectives on giving and help us discover joy as we become vessels of God's generosity.

• Having a scarcity mindset vs. an abundance mindset (0:23)
