No matter how you figure it...
[JESUS] is our center
[GIVING JESUS] is our mission
[JESUS GENEROSITY] is our lifestyle
The goal of this resource day is to empower laity to become leaders in the practice of individual and
communal generosity as a spiritual discipline. Bring a team from your congregation to learn the biblical,
personal, and practical perspectives of stewardship and generosity and how to apply it to the life of your
faith community. Share together in this learning and interactive process AND bring your pastor as well!
This Resource Day is especially designed for laity, though clergy are welcome to attend.
