Beyond Blessings 2

“The widow’s mite has been like a tiny stream flowing down through the ages, widening and deepening in its course, and contributing in a thousand directions to the extension of the truth and the relief of the needy. The influence of that small gift has acted and reacted upon thousands of hearts in every age and in every country” (Ellen G. White, Signs of the Times, November 15, 1910, P. 3). 

Giving is a volatile topic for most of us. But it is a biblical principle that needs more attention. For some, talking about faithful stewardship is like walking on thin ice. Reactions range from “All you want is my money!” to “Isn’t that trying to strike a bargain with God?” Where is the truth? Where is the blessing? Is there a balance? 

One thing is certain—we either steward our possessions faithfully or allow them to become a spiritual barrier between us and God. 

To help us get a balanced understanding, Beyond Blessings 2 offers another series of inspirational messages intended as a resource for local congregations. These messages will be helpful for individual study, group studies such as prayer meetings, or as sermon material. However you choose to use them, one thing is certain—the stories in this book will take you to the very heart of stewardship.
