2. The Great Deception About Giving
from Dr. Jim Richards · host Dr. Jim Richards
I do so much for other people and it seems so unappreciated. One of the great deceptions about giving and sacrificing for others is the idea that it will cause them to love and value us more. There are situations when that is true, but few people know how to identify those who will be grateful and those who will take us for granted. The truth is giving and sacrifices don’t make others value us more, it makes us value them more. When we give to or sacrifice for others it is our emotional bond to them that grows deeper. Join me this week and discover how this Biblical insight can work for you or against you!
