Plenty
How To Live in God’s Radical Generosity
Talk 1: Your Father Knows What You Need
Why do we worry?
We worry because we feel we lack the resources we need to live a good life.If we see a world of scarcity, it’s easy to be afraid. If we see a world of scarcity, it’s easy to be selfish.
Countries also worry about lacking resources to survive. So, they explore for more resources, even to the point of going to war with other countries to have the resources they need.
But Jesus saw a universe of abundance, provided by our generous God. Our brand-new series, PLENTY, presents how we can live in God’s radical generosity.
Talk 1’s key message is God knows what we need.

Talk 5: God Wants To Give You the Gift of Radical Giving
This is the last talk of PLENTY.
In Talk 5, we find out what Radical Generosity exactly means—through the letters of St. Paul to the Corinthians.
Some say the Bible does not talk about money. It does. St. Paul particularly asked for money from the Christian churches he organized to help the Jewish Christians in Jerusalem.
St. Paul’s amazing story about the Macedonians demonstrated how yes, radical they were in their generosity.
