In this week’s message in our current series, The Art of Giving, we discover that generosity is never one-sided. Paul reminds us in 1 Corinthians 12 that we are all part of one body, and when we give, we don’t just bless others—we strengthen the whole body, including ourselves.

What Giving Gets You challenges the idea that generosity leaves us with less. Instead, it reveals how giving connects us more deeply to Christ’s body, builds unity, and allows us to experience joy, purpose, and belonging in God’s family.

When you give, you gain far more than you lose—you gain connection, community, and Kingdom impact.

In this week’s message in our The Art of Giving series, we confront one of the greatest obstacles to generosity—the fear of not having enough. From the disciples facing thousands with only five loaves and two fish to Jesus’ command not to worry about what we will eat or wear, Scripture shows us that scarcity is not the end of the story.

The Scarcity Effect reminds us that when we fix our eyes on what we lack, we miss seeing the God of abundance. But when we trust Him with what little we have, He multiplies it beyond imagination—for our good and His glory.

Scarcity says, “I can’t.” Faith says, “God can.”

In this week’s message from The Art of Giving, we’re reminded that true giving always costs us something—but it also carries transforming power. Jesus said, “Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends” (John 15:13). King David echoed this truth when he declared he would not offer to God that which cost him nothing (2 Samuel 24).

The Power of Sacrifice calls us to move beyond convenient generosity into sacrificial giving that reflects the heart of Christ. When we give at a cost, we not only honor God but also discover the deeper joy, freedom, and impact that sacrificial love brings.

Real love is proven in sacrifice. Real worship is revealed in what it costs.
