How could generosity change my life? 

Colossians 3:23-24

Life is not about achievements, but about the impact we make on the world around us. What kind of impact would you like to make?  

Read 2 Timothy 1:6-7. 

How can you ‘fan the flame’ of the spiritual gift that God has given you? Have you been holding back in any way due to fear? 

In what ways do you feel God is asking you to step out – this week, and this year? 

Share with a trusted friend and ask them to hold you accountable in this area. 

Read 2 Kings 4:8 – 17 and 2 Kings 8:1-6. 

What lessons can you learn from the Shunammite woman’s generosity? 

How can you apply those principles in your own life, this coming week? 

Read 2 Cor 9:5-8. 

Do you currently struggle in giving finances to the church or Christian initiatives? What do you think could be the reason for that? 

How does knowing that God doesn’t want people to give reluctantly, but instead, freely, make you feel?  

Pray in your connect groups or with a trusted friend, for God to help you give more freely. 

Would you consider yourself a trustworthy steward of all that God has given you? Why or why not? 

What kind of legacy would you like to leave on Earth? How would you like to be remembered after you’re gone?  

Discuss in your connect group or with a trusted friend, and take turns praying for each other to live life as God intended.
