Living A Generous Life | The Rival | Dave Stone

About this sermon

There's a competition for your heart. A Rival that’s fiercely vying for your time, attention, and resources - tempting you to close your grip. How do you win this battle? How do you overcome? The victory is found in trusting, and freedom is found in releasing control. Tune in to our CCV Online church experience streaming from Phoenix Arizona and hear from CCV's Teaching Pastor, Dave Stone, as he discusses how we can live generous lifestyles. Jesus says it’s a more joyful experience to GIVE than to GET. Proverbs 11 paints this picture best by reminding us that we are encouraged to live generously. No generous individual ever regrets giving rather than keeping, sharing rather than hoarding, because they know they are sowing seeds! It is not wrong to “have” things but just remember, you don’t want your materials items to “have” you. It's about having the perspective that everything belongs to God and all things belong to Him. God is the true "owner" while we are all "managers". We are called to work on behalf of Him to share what we have been blessed with. Be a vessel and continue to share that blessing. Generosity is ultimately a test of obedience and of trust. An open heart cannot maintain a closed fist.
