Study Guide

Inspiring generosity

Generosity is a value, a characteristic and a practice that lies at the heart of what it means to be a Christian. And yet, we lament that many Christians exhibit a miserly spirit. How does one become a person with a generous spirit? How can this key trait be nourished from generation to generation? The ELCA’s Generosity Project aims to cultivate generosity in families and congregations through workshops and exercises at church and home.
