You’ll discover how Giving is as much a part of spiritual growth as prayer and Bible study. And you’ll learn about the rewards of cultivating wise financial habits and a generous heart. Above all, you’ll find out how a lifestyle of Giving reflects the heart of God, who freely gives his best to you. Leader’s guide included!
