Core Value #3: Generosity

 

We can't out give God. He is far more generous than we can imagine. In fact, He did not even withhold Jesus from us! It all belongs to God, and we in return desire to be generous with our time, talents, and resources for advancing the Kingdom of God by making a tangible difference in people's lives.

 

"Do all the good you can, By all the means you can, In all the ways you can, In all the places you can, At all the times you can, To all the people you can, As long as ever you can." -John Wesley
