God's Ways of Blessing and Generosity

from The Leader’s Notebook with Dr. Mark Rutland · host Dr. Mark Rutland

In this episode of The Leader’s Notebook (Ep. 310), I explore the highest levels of generosity and the joy of giving as God intends. From Luke 19:20–30 and the story of the unnamed donkey owner to David’s lavish gifts in Jerusalem, we see that God blesses those who obey and give with a cheerful, open heart. Tithing anchors our giving, but God calls us beyond the minimum into a life of grace, delight, and freedom. Whether through finances, time, or spirit, surrendering to God’s “The Lord has need of it” brings unexpected blessing, joy, and abundant life. Experience the thrill of generosity and learn to live fully in God’s grace.– Dr. Mark Rutland Chapters (00:00:03) - The Leaders Notebook(00:00:25) - Coming to the Highest Levels of Philanthropy(00:03:05) - Prayer for the Colt(00:05:02) - The Man Who gave the Donkey on Palm Sunday(00:10:24) - The New Ford F-250(00:16:31) - Tithing and Forgiveness(00:21:40) - The Joy of Giving(00:26:47) - Send the Holy Ghost to Your Life(00:31:19) - The Joy of Tithing(00:35:24) - A Diamond Ring Offering(00:40:42) - A million-dollar gift to SEIU(00:45:16) - How Much Money Should You Give?(00:49:03) - All God's Blessings for the Church(00:50:47) - The Leader's Notebook
