5. Learning Generosity
Series: Bringing Home the Bacon
Preacher: David Kobedi
Bible Reading: Proverbs 11: 23 – 29, Luke 12: 16 – 21
Tonight’s sermon is on generosity. This is not easy, because many of us have been conned by churches and the prosperity ministry. However, we are called to give and there is good reason to give within this calling. Giving brings glory to the Lord. By giving we are a blessing to others and a blessing to ourselves. We receive blessing. Not financially, but spiritually.
To find out what this blessing is and to better understanding giving, listen to this sermon.
Topics in this sermon: How the early church expanded. Money, wealth and prosperity. Giving. Blessing. The prosperity Gospel. Generosity. The parable of the rich fool.
