If you’re looking to support Christian charities who are focused on looking after our planet, we’ve compiled a list of organisations for you to look into.
At Stewardship, we always consider Advent to be the perfect time to think about generosity. There’s nothing more generous than God sending his son into the world for us.
Everyone knows Christmas time as the season of giving, but what does that really mean for Christians?
Until fairly recently, I’d never deeply considered the concept of long-term saving. The idea of having money sitting in a bank not being used seems strange to me...
The best hospitality I ever received was not comfortable. In fact it was extremely uncomfortable.
“Actually, the best thing you could do would be to pray for her...”
As a 7 year old, this was my introduction to the concept of praying for ‘enemies’. There was another child at school who had been continually nasty to me for no apparent reason. And whilst being comforted by my mum, this was the suggestion she’d made.
At the start of this week I knew I wanted to write about radical communities. What I didn’t know was that we’d have witnessed yet another devastating event with another community coming together through hope and generosity in the midst of horror and despair.
Recently I was in a Bible study where the group was discussing homelessness.
One lady told how she was approached by a guy on the street for money, but asked what she could get him to drink instead.
She was slightly taken aback when he replied specifically, “A caramel macchiato.”
At the end of 40acts we’re often flooded with messages saying "I wish it happened all year round!" so this year we’re taking up the challenge with a plan to keep the generosity going for the rest of 2017 and right through to Lent 2018.
God's given us the generous gift of his Word to speak truth to us. To lead, guide and encourage us. To comfort and restore us. We've made these images as an easy way share that gift. Feel free to use them to bless others.
Firstly, what is a generosity kit?
A generosity kit could be as big as a suitcase or as small as your back pocket. The idea is just that you face the day prepared – with a kit of items that could range from a safety pin to a shovel, ready to give out generously to those in need.
