August Blog Series

August begins a blog series on the third of our Faith Practices - Give.  Please watch for new blogs in the next few weeks on this particular topic.  (And if you missed it - go back and read some of our past posts!  We covered Worship in June and Praying in July.)

"Giving is part of daily life. Givers recognize that giving really flows from receiving from the abundance of God. Givers do not count the cost of giving but behave beyond calculation. Giving is not always easy. Our human need for control sometimes limits or distorts our giving practices. Just as faithfulness is good in and of itself, so is generosity as it is a spiritual practice."

The ELCA recognizes seven Faith Practices that are meant to inspire us to develop patterns for living that characterize a life that is devoted to daily discipleship.  Click here for more information on the Faith Practices.... then click on each topic to dive a little deeper.

We pray that you find our blogs to be helpful and meaningful as you strive to model these practices in your own daily life.
