from First Presbyterian Church of San Anselmo · host The Rev. Dr. Joanne Whitt
2 Corinthians 9:6-13: Paul desperately wants the Corinthians to contribute to the needs of the Jerusalem church. He seems to promise they will benefit if the give. Is this true? Yes, and no. While "the prosperity gospel" (material rewards for faith) is magical thinking, generosity does in fact give us joy and even a larger sense of health and well-being.
