I'm thrilled to be introducing you to another great book by Mrs. Sharon White, Economy for the Christian Home: A 12 Week Challenge for Wives to Increase Charitable Giving. I'll be honest---giving is low on my priority list when it comes to spending our earnings. With our large family, I always feel there's some need that could be met here at home and I tend to meet a whole lot of non-essentials before I ever think about giving to those less fortunate. God has called Christians to a life of generosity though, and I know this is an area I need to focus on.
In Economy for the Christian Home, Mrs. White gives practical help and encouragement on budgeting out money to be given to those in need---easy steps that even those with the smallest of budgets can stick to. One thing I'm really excited about starting up is the Charity Box. This idea will help our family be intentional about setting aside money so we're prepared when the Lord leads us to share it.
I encourage you to grab a copy of Economy for the Christian Home and be challenged to care for the poor. This excellent resource would also be great for a group study. Check out another of my favorites from Mrs. White in my article on her book, Living On His Income.
Now it's time for The {Not Just} Homemaking Party! Thanks for stopping by and linking up!
I need to read this...I never seem to have enough for my family, much less some to give!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great book to read. My posting today believe it or not was 4 great ways to give without using money. I feel as though I can give more with these four ways. I give all I can (I'm very frugal) and then I can give more using these ways.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the party!!
