But since you excel in everything—in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in complete earnestness and in the love we have kindled in you—see that you also excel in this grace of giving.

Family

Family is God’s institution for transferring faith and values to impact our world. Is there a way to more effectively pass values on to your family? How can you involve your family in your generosity?

He decreed statutes for Jacob and established the law in Israel, which he commanded our ancestors to teach their children, so the next generation would know them, even the children yet to be born, and they in turn would tell their children. Then they would put their trust in God and would not forget his deeds but would keep his commands.
Psalm 78:5-7

Consider the cause

Consider the cause God has laid on your heart. What problem(s) do you care about? Do you feel connected to the causes to which you are giving? Are you confident your charitable investment is having lasting impact?

Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.

Ephesians 5:15-16
