Want financial freedom and the joy of giving back? Join Chip’s new series, "The Genius of Generosity," starting now!
Four reasons it’s genius to be generous:
1. Generosity CHANGES our lives. -Acts 20:35; Pr. 11:25
2. Generosity CONNECTS us with others.
3. Generosity helps us INVEST in what matters. -Mt. 6:19-24
4. Generosity FREES our hearts.
Question: If generosity is so smart, why isn’t everyone doing it?
Breakthrough Concept #1: Generosity is the gateway to intimacy with God.
Three questions brilliant people ask
1. Am I using the money entrusted to me in accordance with the OWNER’S wishes?
2. Am I carefully keeping account of where all the OWNER’S funds are going?
3. Am I becoming “best friends” with the “OWNER” by the privilege and opportunity of managing His resources?

On the day our Lord Jesus Christ came into the world, most of the world didn’t even notice. The question all of us should ask ourselves is this: How often do we make room in our lives for Jesus? In the midst of our hectic schedules, with all that’s going on between work and family and all the rest of it, how much time do we carve out to spend with the Creator of the universe? Ron shares some great insight on this very subject next, as he continues his teaching series, “The Art of Christmas.”
Christmas morning is approaching fast. But have we given thought to the One who was born that day? In this message, Pastor Lutzer pauses to consider Jesus, noting two reasons why people don't accept Christ as He is revealed. While many enjoy the trappings of Christmas, it's really all about Christ.
