Fields of Gold (Generous Giving)
What will you do with your handful of seed?God has given each of us the opportunity to partner with him in the greatest work of all: kingdom work. As stewards of his resources, we have a choice. We can sow the seed or we can lock it away out of fear.Even though we know we should give a portion of our income to God, fear often stands in the way of generosity. And when we let it, this fear has the potential to rob us of an intimate relationship with God. Worse yet, fear can cause us to handle our finances in a way that locks him out completely.But when we give God what is rightfully his, we acknowledge his power and greatness, opening ourselves up to limitless joy and peace that comes from trusting him.InFields of Gold, author Andy Stanley shows us that those who sow generously can expect to reap generously and receive a bountiful return.When we open our hands and plant our seed, the rewards are guaranteed: Fields of gold--in this life, as well as the life to come. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.--From the Inside FlapPerhaps you once dreamed of sowing fertile fields of generosity.
