Welcome to the second episode of Active Generosity with Steve Campbell, Senior Pastor at C3 and National Director of the Global Leadership Network (GLN) UKI.
Steve shares insights into what drives his quest to encourage generosity in the church. Often heard quoting The Message translation of Proverbs 11:24 that “the world of the generous grows larger and larger”, in this episode Steve unpacks his own experience of the truth of that Scripture and his desire for others to know the freedom and joy that comes with being generous with all that we have.
Steve’s favourite Bible verse on generosity:
“For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” Matthew 6:21 (NIV)
He also discusses the importance of 2 Corinthians chapters 8 and 9 in learning more about biblical generosity.
