Generosity perspectives
February 17, 2020
I’m Miriam Neff-with STARTING OVER FINANCIALLY, and I’m Valerie Neff Hogan, and we’re here to talk about money
M Are you making intentional plans to be generous this year? What causes do you want to support and encourage? Consider Isaiah 1: 16-17 After an admonition to wash and make oneself clean, Isaiah gives this instruction. “Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow.”
V Consider looking around you. Who is being denied justice? Can you help them find their voice? Be a voice with them? Orphans and widows are often mistreated. Their option to eat might be prostitution, practically slavery. How might you address that?
M Research every organization and church. Biblical principles first. Biblical actions and transparency, a must.
