How To Grow Your Generosity

Pastor Ryan challenges listeners to cultivate authentic generosity, revealing how easily our actions can diverge from our stated beliefs, much like his own experience during a tornado warning. He highlights sobering statistics showing that many practicing Christians, despite believing in biblical giving, do not consistently demonstrate generosity. Drawing from 2 Corinthians chapter 9, Ryan outlines that growing in generosity involves being prepared by planning and sacrificing, being expectant of increased grace and righteousness rather than financial return, and being submissive as an act of total surrender to God, holding nothing back. Ultimately, he emphasizes that giving is a direct response to God’s “inexpressible gift” of Jesus Christ, urging listeners to take a concrete next step in their faith and giving.
