Passion for Praise: 'Producing Great Praise to God'

Friday, November 24, 2017

This most generous God who gives seed to the farmer that becomes bread for your meals is more than extravagant with you. He gives you something you can then give away, which grows into full-formed lives, robust in God, wealthy in every way, so that you can be generous in every way, producing with us great praise to God.
— 2 Corinthians 9:10-11 MESSAGE
