Grace, Gratitude, and Giving: Biblical Reflections on Christian Philanthropy - Paperback

by Jeffrey P. Greenman (Editor)

In Grace, Gratitude, and Giving, six ambassadors of Regent College attempt to deepen the conversation among Christians about our relationship to money and the idea of giving some of it away--a subject usually considered awkward at best, and perhaps even off-limits in many church circles. It is intended to assist Christian lay people and pastors alike to gain some valuable glimpses into the Bible's way of thinking about money, possessions, and generosity.

Aimed at stimulating our thinking about the foundational beliefs underpinning the practices of Christian philanthropy, Grace, Gratitude, and Giving ultimately hopes that, as an expression of Regent's core mission, it might be used by God "to cultivate intelligent, vigorous and joyful commitment to Jesus Christ, his church and his world."
