The Holy Habit of Generosity

This Sunday we're going to be concluding a series that we've been doing in our all-age services since January 2019. Obviously, this one is going to be a bit different to the rest, as we won't actually be in the church building.

The series has been called 'Holy Habits' and it is based on the book 'Holy Habits' by Andrew Roberts.

The Holy Habits picked out in this book (it doesn't claim to be an exhaustive list) are taken from one of the descriptions of the church that we find in Acts - in Acts 2:42-47.

Holy Habits are not something that we do in order to be a Christian or to try and impress God. Rather they are habits that we look to develop because as we do we will become more and more like Jesus.

This week we're going to be looking at the Holy Habits of Gladness and Generosity.

As well as making videos about different books of the Bible, The Bible Project also make videos that explore a particular theme that runs throughout the Bible. Well, they've made a video on Generosity which explores how selfishness is the result of not trusting that God is the generous host who can be trusted.
