If the tithe is a starting point, the New Testament invites us into something deeper. In this Sermon Plus episode, we explore what generosity looks like when it’s shaped by Jesus and formed by grace, not guilt, pressure, or performance.
Using key New Testament passages, we see that generosity flows from grace, grows through intentional rhythms, and reveals where our trust truly rests. This episode reframes giving as participation in God’s mission, not a transaction, and addresses common barriers like fear, control, and distrust with clarity and pastoral honesty.
The goal isn’t pressure, it’s freedom. Not perfection, but formation. New Testament generosity is one of the ways Jesus loosens money’s grip on our hearts and trains us to live open-handed lives.
Scriptures referenced: 2 Corinthians 8:1–9, 1 Corinthians 16:1–2, Matthew 6:1–4, Mark 12:41–44, Philippians 4:14–19, 1 Timothy 6:17–19 (ESV)
