Reading the Owner's Manual: Part 3 - Giving: Seen or Secret

Description

Jesus teaches that our giving should be motivated by love for God, not recognition from others. When we give in secret, we develop intimacy with God and store up treasures in heaven. Our relationship with money directly impacts our spiritual condition - where our treasure is, there our heart will be also. Christians should give regularly, happily, and for God's glory, recognizing that before we ever gave to God, He gave everything for us through Jesus Christ. Generous giving doesn't just change others' lives; it transforms our hearts from fearful to faithful and shifts our loyalty from money to God.
