Summary

Dr. Crawford Loritts leads us through 2 Corinthians 9 and we see that generosity and sacrifice are God’s disposition towards us and, therefore, our giving is a picture of the Gospel. We learn that generosity is a product of our gratitude for the mercy God has shown us. Dr. Loritts also teaches us that the pathway to our provision is through generosity. It not only honors God and those around us but it changes the fabric of who we are. We give, not to get in return, but so that we may be given more to share through generosity.
