There's a throne in each life big enough for only one. Christ may be on that throne, or money may be. But both cannot occupy it.

Image
Give cheerfully. If we're not cheerful, the problem is our heart, and the solution is redirecting our heart, not withholding our giving.

Christians are God's delivery people, through whom he does his giving to a needy world. We are conduits of God's grace to others. Our eternal investment portfolio should be full of the most strategic kingdom-building projects to which we can disburse God's funds.

Image
The repentant man rightfully loses trust in himself. He recognizes his self-dependence as the source of his problems, not the solution.

God comes right out and tells us why he gives us more money than we need. It's not so we can find more ways to spend it. It's not so we can indulge ourselves and spoil our children. It's not so we can insulate ourselves from needing God's provision. It's so we can give and give generously (2 Corinthians 8:14 9:11)

This is one of the great paradoxes of suffering. Those who don't suffer much think suffering should keep people from God, while many who suffer a great deal turn to God, not from him.

If you're a child of God, you do not just go around once on Earth. You don't get just one earthly life. You get another-one far better and without end. You'll inhabit the New Earth! You'll live with the God you cherish and the people you love as an undying person on an undying Earth.

Grace and truth are spiritual DNA, the building blocks of Christ-centered living.
Randy Alcorn
Image
Give more as you make more. Remember: God prospers us not to raise our standard of living, but to raise our standard of giving.

Image
Are we truly obeying the command to love our neighbor as ourselves if we're storing up money for potential future needs when our neighbor is laboring today under actual present needs?
Randy Alcorn
Image
Cheap grace replaces truth with tolerance, lowering the bar so everyone can jump over it and we can all feel good about ourselves.

Image
Heaven isn't an extrapolation of earthly thinking Earth is an extension of Heaven, made by the Creator King.

Image
Worry is momentary atheism crying out for correction by trust in a good, sovereign God. Suffering breaks self-reliance.

Jesus tells you exactly how to get it. Put your money in missions-and in your church and the poor-and your heart will follow.

The tithe is God's historical method to get us on the path of giving. In that sense, it can serve as a gateway to the joy of grace giving. It's unhealthy to view tithing as a place to stop, but it can still be a good place to start.

It's not just what Christian fiction lacks I appreciate - it's what it offers. The variety is vast: contemporary, historical, suspense, mysteries, adventure, young adult, romance, fantasy, science fiction.

Teach your children gratefulness. Do all you can to deliver them from our culture's poisonous entitlement mentality.

When you leave this world, will you be known as one who accumulated treasures on earth that you couldn't keep? Or will you be recognized as one who invested treasures in heaven that you couldn't lose?
