Generosity

This past Sunday we shifted gears on our series and started a mini series on Generosity. Anytime yo hear that word our minds quickly go to money. No doubt money is a tool where we are able to see our generosity or lack of but what we are talking about is much deeper than dollars.
We're talking about the generous life! This Sunday we'll dive into the characteristics of the generous life. If you are going to come and hang out with us I want you to begin thinking about that.

Where have you encountered extreme generosity in a life?
What are/where the characteristics of that life?

Paul told Timothy to teach the people to "be generous and willing to share." (We'll look at this specific passage this week)

There are some amazing things happening in the lives of some of the people who make up LifePoint and over the next few months we will highlight some of the stories and invite others of you to dive in to what is happening.

Kudo's to the community of people that have started going to Macon each Sunday night and feeding and hanging out with the homeless and hurting people up there.

Kudo's to the community of people that are working on houses of those in need and especially this week on the house of one of those who is part of our church family.

Thank you! Thank You! Thank You! To all of you who displayed generosity toward my family as Carey has been recovering from back surgery.

I'm so grateful to be part of a community of people who get it and who display the marks of a generous life!
