When you hear the word “generosity” you may automatically think of money. But generosity is so much more than that. Generosity is freely giving to someone else what God has given you— whether it be talents, time, or resources—without expecting anything in return. One example of this is how your generosity impacted a widow in our church named Linda. Linda had several repairs that she needed done around her home and a group of people in our church used their…
A simple act of kindness can have a massive impact. Something as small as a smile, someone letting you have the last parking spot, or a stranger paying for your food.

Take a look at how he is still experiencing the power of spiritual…
God can use any situation to show you who He is, what He does, and to bring you closer to Himself. It doesn’t always take a major, life-threatening accident, but that’s exactly what brought Tahmra and Bobby into a deeper relationship with God and His people. And through that accident, God changed their lives forever. “The motorcycle accident changed pretty much everything for us. It started out as a pretty typical day in 2018 with my fiance, Tahmra.
