BOLD Generosity

BOLD

Choosing to give generously, to give until it truly costs us something, is a spiritual practice we often reserve for mature believers. But Jesus' encounter with Zacchaeus demonstrates that generosity is a natural response to Jesus' good news. When we truly encounter Jesus, giving ought to be a basic, initial response. If we have difficulty with choosing to be generous, we should ask ourselves: what did Zacchaeus see in Jesus that I don't?

During this series, we’ve been exploring the three temptations using Dostoyevsky’s “The Grand Inquisitor”.

This Sunday, we’re going to switch things up. I’m going to share some of my own fiction that I’ve used to reflect on the nature of Jesus third test.

What did it mean that Satan told Jesus to worship him? How could Satan offer up the kingdoms of the world?

Questions to consider… until we gather on Sunday. See you then!

 

Join us Sunday as we explore what it takes to rule the world – and why we should fail that test.
