If Bill Gates is giving 1 billion dollars to charity, what is my $50 going to do? [Video]

If Bill Gates is giving 1 billion dollars to charity, what is my $50 going to do?

Why should I have a Heart of Generosity? I heard Bill Gates gave away a billion dollars. I make $500 a week. What’s my $50 compared to a billion?
Here is the full message: https://youtu.be/gdg_3gUud6U

~ The generosity of many people is more powerful!
~ Do the math: There are over 300 million people in America alone. What if 200 million Americans give $50
• That would be 10 billion dollars
• Now:
~ How frequently could everyone give $50
• Imagine that kind of money in the area you are passionate about for God. How quickly would all those small gifts make a difference. 1 month, 2 months, 3 months…30 billion dollars like that…if everyone had $50 worth of faith and the Heart of Generosity.
• Do you see why this subject matters?
• Don’t ever let small gifts hold you back
• Furthermore:
~ There are reasons you should give regardless
• The Heart of Generosity does something far greater in you and your family. It changes everything and when you are doing it for God as the hands and feet of God, there is no limit to what God can do both with that gift and with you in those actions.

~ This goes back to a previous one we talk about but be specific with your dollars. Do the work to see how your small amount can be a pouring of gasoline on a fire.

~ If you didn’t see my latest news video from the newsletter this last week, I talked about how through a gift from someone passing away this last year. In their will they gave a gift to the church, this allowed us to take a home that was falling on our 14 acres out back, mice overtaking it, woodpeckers destroying it, we now had the funds to get it back to livable space. We were able to bless someone in need of a home because every rentable space in our area is going to short term rentals. Now we have rental income coming in every month. This gift now will be multiplied many times over and go directly into ministry for many years to come. This is doing the work to see how your gift can be multiplied by the passion area God has led you to give it towards.

~ By the way if you are not getting our weekly email newsletters with all these updates, fill out your welcome card on your bulletin and write NEWSLETTER across it somewhere to make sure you get weekly updates. That is the way to stay in the know on what is happening around here. The ways you can get involved around here, hopefully it is also a passion area for you.
