The Practice of Generosity

American Christians give on average about 2.5% of their income to charitable causes. They give even less of their time. This is problematic, given that Jesus said what we do with our resources reveals what we treasure. We can't serve both God and money. But the good news is we can be transformed by the grace of Jesus so we give not only generously, but also cheerfully. It can become a true joy to invest in the things that are near and dear to the heart of God.
