Join The Journey

"What does the Macedonians giving ‘beyond their means’ out of joy, even in affliction and poverty teach us about the relationship between generosity, joy, and trust in God’s provision? How should 2 Corinthians 8:9 shape the way Christians think about money and generosity? Paul says whoever sows sparingly will reap sparingly, and that God loves a cheerful giver. How should Christians understand this principle without turning it into a prosperity gospel message? What does it actually mean to reap abundantly? In today's episode, Emma Dotter talks with Watermark CDC volunteers Jason and Connie Reed about 2 Corinthains 6-9, the dangers of the prosperity gospel, and how we can steward our finances in a way that glorifies the Lord. 

Additional references: John 10:10; Philippians 4:6-7; Mark 12;
