May 14/23 - Gifts from God The Gift of Generosity

Today we are wrapping up our four-week series on Gifts from God by reflecting on Acts 2:42-47 and Acts 4:32-37, The Gift of Generosity. A few weeks ago, we reflected on the church as the body of Jesus - how we belong to Jesus and to each other. This is reflected in how we use the financial gifts that God has blessed us with. When we see that there are those who are struggling and need help, we realize that those who have been blessed with much are encouraged to be generous and help each other out. Following Jesus creates a different kind of community and way of living that often may seem odd to those outside the church because of our commitment to each other
