Please note that for today’s podcast there is no transcript.  Most people get uncomfortable when the pastor starts talking about money. Some of us come from churches where wealth is looked down on as a sign of worldliness or greed. Perhaps we feel a measure of guilt for having a nice house and a robust savings account. Others may have been burned by prosperity teachers who used false promises to manipulate the congregation into giving. So what does the Bible really say about wealth and generosity?

What does the Bible actually teach about generosity, offerings, and money?In this message from the Money Myths series, we explore the difference between tithes, offerings, and alms, and ask the personal question: Am I generous? This sermon unpacks how generosity reflects the heart of God, why offerings are a voluntary act of extravagant worship, and how both a poverty mindset and the prosperity gospel can distort a biblical view of money.You'll hear powerful testimonies of God's faithfulness, practical teaching on stewardship, and biblical examples from Moses, David, Solomon, the widow's offering, and the boy who gave his lunch to Jesus. Above all, this message points us back to Jesus - the ultimate picture of generosity - who gave His life so we could receive eternal life.Whether you are new to church, wrestling with finances, or wanting to grow in faith, this message will challenge you to trust God more deeply and live with open hands.

When we studied Titus, Paul talked about the Holy Spirit being poured upon God's people from the depths of God's bosom and he said God gives His spirit “generously,” He gives an endless supply to His people! Why? So we can endure to the end as he leads us. There are people who teach we have nothing to do with our salvation and this is absolute false. Paul says, “and he has invited you into partnership with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.” Paul is talking to the church in Corinth, the ones he called “holy” at the beginning of the letter. He makes it clear that Jesus has the power to keep us and will keep us, if we keep in partnership with him. It's called free will. If we look at other scriptures, they will support the idea.

GENEROUS GRACE GIVING March 1, 2026 Elwyn Johnston 2 Corinthians 8:1 – 9 Verse of the Week: “It is more blessed to give than to receive.” Acts 20:35 1. We are called to be contributors, not simply consumers. “They are being tested by many troubles, and they are extremely poor. But they are also filled with abundant joy, which has overflowed in rich generosity.” 2 Corinthians 8:2 “their first action was to give themselves to the Lord” 2 Cor. 8:5 “They begged us again and again for the privilege of sharing in the gift for the believers in Jerusalem.” 2 Corinthians 8:4 2. We are called to be Christ's representatives “Now I want you to know, dear brothers and sisters, what God in His grace has done through the churches in Macedonia.” 2 Corinthians 8:1 “You are the light of the world….let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.” Matthew 5:14 & 16 “I am testing the sincerity of your love” 2 Corinthians 8:8 “where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” Matthew 6:21 3. We are called to eternal-minded giving “we have urged Titus, who encouraged your giving in the first place, to return to you and encourage you to finish this ministry of giving.” 2 Corinthians 8:6 “excel also in this gracious act of giving.” 2 Corinthians 8:7 “It would be good for you to finish what you started a year ago. Last year you were the first who wanted to give, and you were the first to begin doing it. Now finish what you started. Let the eagerness you showed in the beginning be matched now by your giving.” 2 Corinthians 8:10 & 11 “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me and to finish His work.” John 4:34 “You know the generous grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. Though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, so that by His poverty He could make you rich.” 2 Corinthians 8:9 “generous people plan to do what is generous, and they stand firm in their generosity.” Isaiah 32:8 “It is more blessed to give than to receive.” Acts 20:35

It’s not always easy to celebrate when someone else receives the very blessing you’ve been praying for. You may smile, offer congratulations, and truly want to feel joy for them—yet beneath the surface, there’s a quiet sting. Why them and not me? Genesis 4 introduces us to that very struggle. Cain and Abel both brought offerings to the Lord, yet God looked with favor on Abel’s gift and not on Cain’s. Cain’s anger grew, and instead of trusting God, he allowed jealousy and resentment to take root. The story reminds us that comparison is dangerous ground. When we believe God’s generosity toward someone else somehow limits His goodness toward us, we misunderstand who He is. God’s blessings are not a limited resource. He is infinite in love, mercy, grace, and provision. Jealousy whispers that we’ve been overlooked. Pride insists we deserve more. But trust anchors us in the truth: God’s timing and plans are intentional, even when we don’t understand them. His generosity toward others does not diminish His care for you. Like a bud waiting for its season to bloom, you can trust that your time will come. You don’t have to compete for God’s favor. You are already His beloved child. Main Takeaways It’s human to feel envy when others receive blessings we desire. Cain’s story shows the danger of letting jealousy take root. God’s generosity is not limited—His blessing of others does not exclude you. Comparison can lead to resentment, but trust leads to peace. You don’t have to compete for God’s love or favor—you already belong to Him. Today’s Bible Verse “In the course of time, Cain brought some of the fruits of the soil as an offering to the Lord. And Abel also brought an offering—fat portions from some of the firstborn of his flock. The Lord looked with favor on Abel and his offering, but on Cain and his offering, he did not look with favor. So Cain was very angry, and his face was downcast.” - Genesis 4:3-5 NIV Your Daily Prayer Prayer excerpt for listeners: “Help me see my brothers and sisters as companions, not competitors, and trust Your perfect timing.” Listen to the full prayer here.

I believe God calls Christians to be generous because generosity is a key component of our spiritual growth. It's our normal human instinct to be stingy, to think of our own needs, and to be concerned with our own comfort and happiness. Yet, when we break out of that mold and be generous, we are becoming like Christ. One of the greatest characteristics of Jesus is that He was and is generous. If you want to be like Jesus, become a generous person. Main Points:1. Why does our level of giving matter to God? Because it reveals our heart. Generosity is an outward demonstration of what we love and what we hold most dear.2. So, what is it that keeps us from becoming more generous? It's a great question because most people I know truly want to become more generous. So, why aren't we. Often times, it comes down to fear. We are afraid that if we are generous, we won't have enough to meet our own needs.3. Generosity is a key to spiritual growth because it is a selfless characteristic. As we grow spiritually the things that matter to God become increasingly more important to us. Today's Scripture Verses:Proverbs 11:25 - “A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed.”2 Corinthians 8:7 - “See that you also excel in this grace of giving.”Matthew 6:21 - “For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”2 Corinthians 9:6 - “Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously.”Quick Links:Donate to support this podcastLeave a review on Apple PodcastsGet a copy of The 5 Minute Discipleship JournalConnect on SocialJoin The 5 Minute Discipleship Facebook Group

"It's Time To Build: The Secret to Revival" by Bobby Wallace Join us as Bobby discusses the concept of revival, defining it as a time of spiritual renewal and repentance, marked by people coming to or returning to faith, leading to community changes as believers serve and share Jesus. He emphasizes that revival should be a lifestyle, a rebellion against sin, not just a series of meetings. He uses Nehemiah 7-11 to illustrate secrets to revival: Repopulating the city (making heaven crowded): Sharing the gospel and leading more people to Jesus. Generous giving: Radically and generously giving finances to God. Devotion to the Word of God: Studying the Bible together for revelation, not validation. Fasting and confession: Separating from the world, confessing sins, and seeking transformation. Recommitment to God: Renewing commitment to God's laws and commandments. Moving where needed: Being willing to move and go where God calls to share the gospel.

First Lenten Retreat: The Works of Lent: Growth Toward a Generous Spirit During each Friday of the Lenten Season, there will be a Lenten Retreat Conference. This is the first week within this series. Each conference will appear singularly on the Website, SoundCloud, Facebook and iPod platforms. All conferences will also appear within this post. This Retreat explains that Lent has a deliberate spiritual structure rooted in early Church practice. While many people think of Lent mainly as “giving something up,” the Church intends something deeper: a transformation of the heart through the three traditional works of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. Historically, Ash Wednesday was added later as a gateway into Lent, orienting believers toward repentance and renewal. In the ancient Church . . . especially in Rome . . . seasonal fasts (later called Ember Days) connected spiritual life to the rhythms of agriculture: planting, growth, harvest, and sharing food with those in need. These fasts were communal, not private, and included processions, vigils, ordinations, and acts of charity. The faithful prayed not only for themselves but for crops, the poor, catechumens preparing for baptism, and new ministers of the Church. The Retreat stresses that Lenten practices are not about quantity (“doing more”) but quality and intention: • Prayer asks for whom and how we pray, deepening attentiveness to God. • Fasting reveals what we truly hunger for, disciplines disordered desires, and fosters solidarity with the poor. • Almsgiving is the goal toward which prayer and fasting lead . . . self-gift in imitation of Christ. True fasting expands the heart; true prayer changes behavior; true charity gives not just possessions but oneself. Lent therefore trains Christians to move from self-centeredness to sacrificial love, mirroring Christ's own self-emptying. Ultimately, charity endures above all virtues and becomes the visible sign of authentic faith. Listen to this first devotional Lenten Retreat Conference and let it transform your heart. Join us virtually, or physically, each week for additional Lenten Retreat conferences.

Send me a Text Message!We are going to hear Jesus say (again), "If you believe in me rivers of living water will flow out from within you." I want to suggest that when rivers of living water flow out of us, we can't help but be generous with Jesus. Being generous with your time, that's cool. Being generous with your finances, I hope you are. Being generous with forgiveness, we'll be in a prison of bitterness if we don't. But what could be better than being generous with Jesus?But I'm not talking about giving something to Jesus. I'm talking about giving Jesus to others. God has an unlimited capacity to give, but we have a limited capacity to receive. God has an unlimited capacity to give us Jesus but we have a limited capacity to receive, so if want more of Jesus, we need to share Jesus with others. We need to let the rivers of living water flow. Let's be generous with Jesus!

There is a lot of talk about leaving corporate life… …quitting your job, and "betting on yourself" as the only path to freedom. In this episode, I ask a different question, is corporate life really broken, or are most workplaces just not generous enough yet to give people what they are craving. I share why we do not need every talented person to become a solo entrepreneur, and how generous workplace cultures can offer the same things people think they have to leave to find, ownership of time, presence at home, optionality, purpose, and meaningful impact. We'll walk through twelve signs that often push people toward the entrepreneurial leap, things like wanting to own your calendar, desiring more purpose than politics, seeking freedom over titles, and wanting to grow your own brand and skills. Instead of telling you to quit, I show how the best companies are building environments where you can have those things while still working with a team, with resources, and with stability. You'll also four practical solutions you can start using right now to make your organization more generous, whether you are the official leader or you are leading from within. If you have ever thought, "Maybe I need to leave corporate to feel fulfilled," this episode will help you see another path. You will learn how to build or seek out a generous culture where you can be present for your family, own more of your time, grow like an entrepreneur, and still enjoy the support of a healthy organization. *Enroll in the "Feeling Generous" Email course

Numbers 7: Generous Monotony—The Leaders Bring their Gifts

The longest chapter in the Torah reads like a divine receipt, recording the identical offerings of twelve tribal leaders over twelve days. To our modern ears, this repetition can sound like a broken record, a tedious list of ancient gifts. But in God's economy, this repetition is a profound declaration of the Gospel. It proclaims that each tribe, each leader, each individual gift is seen, known, and precious in His sight. This chapter demonstrates that a people purified by God's blessing respond with their best, and in turn, they receive the greatest gift of all: God's voice speaking peace from the mercy seat.  The Rev. David Vandercook, pastor at Trinity Lutheran Church in North Little Rock, AR and Shepherd of Peace Lutheran Church in Maumelle, AR, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Numbers 7.  To learn more about Trinity and Shepherd of Peace, visit trinitynlr.com and shepherdofpeace.net The Book of Numbers is far more than an ancient census report. It is the story of a people learning to trust God in the wilderness, and failing, and finding grace anyway.  In this series, host Pastor Phil Booe and guest pastors walk through the Old Testament book of Numbers chapter by chapter. We follow Israel from Sinai toward the Promised Land, through grumbling and rebellion, fiery serpents and a talking donkey, faithless spies and faithful priests. The journey is hard, the failures are many, and God remains faithful to a faithless people.  These ancient accounts point us to Christ. The bronze serpent lifted on a pole points to the cross. The rock struck for water points to the one struck for us. The high priest whose death frees the manslayer points to the Great High Priest whose death sets us free forever. Join us as we discover that the wilderness has more to teach us than we ever expected.
