Giving Generously

Pastor Jacob Aranza

August 20, 2023

Main Idea

We looked at how Jesus gave generously in his last 30 days and how this can be an example for us today. Generosity isn't limited to physical objects but also includes the words we share with others. We were encouraged to live today as if it were our last month to live.

What would you do if you only had one month left to live?

Why is it so difficult for some of us to tell others how much we love them?

Discussion Questions:

Why does our attitude towards money matter so much to God?

If you had 30 days to live, would you live generously with your money, possessions, and riches?

Who would you ask to forgive you for 'word wounds' that you hurt them with at a moment of anger, stress, or frustration?
