Episode Teaching | There Is More Joy in Giving Than Receiving | Generosity E01

0:00 55:10

Does more money mean more happiness? John Mark walks through some of Jesus's surprising teachings on money, showing us how social science affirms the fact that generosity, not accumulation, leads to joy. He challenges us to reflect on whether we have an abundance or scarcity mindset, and invites us to deepen our trust in God's generosity.

Key Scripture Passage: Matthew 6v19-24, Acts 20v35
