Generosity in the Church

As church leaders, it is inherently known that being generous should be one of the key values of a church. While this is true, there are times when churches can feel overwhelmed by financial struggles and caught in a tug-of-war between how they know they should give, and what they are tempted to withhold. This can be true in not only the church, but in our personal lives as well. Financial struggles are a prevalent problem that most every person and institution has to deal with at some point. In this video, you will learn why generosity should drive and define you as a leader from both a practical and biblical standpoint.

One of the most important concepts that you will learn is that your attitude shapes you view generosity and how you give. You can control how you view certain aspects of life and ministry. Shifting your perspective when it comes to giving and generosity can be a crucial step in realizing the importance of giving, while allowing you to be prosperous as you strive to actively pursue God’s will for yourself and your church. This video will walk you through specific ways to shift your perspective so that you can align your thoughts and intentions with the biblical model of generosity.

Understanding the role that generosity plays in the church and in your life is crucial as you are taking steps to grow in your leadership. The Bible is very clear when it comes to ownership and entitlement while we live on this earth, simply put, God owns all of it. In this video, Pastor Rob Ketterling, of River Valley Church, will provide you with a deeper biblical understanding of this concept, as well as personal strategies that you can take to improve your attitude towards giving.
