Living Generously: A whole-life response to God’s love
Pauline Wilson

Katherine Southern
Living Generously complements a suite of existing digital resources from the Church of Scotland to promote a whole-life approach to Christian stewardship. Its holistic approach comes from a perspective of abundance rather than scarcity, and invites readers to reflect on God’s goodness and the resources we have at our disposal, both personally and collectively in our churches. It offers a practical and positive alternative at a time of anxiety about decline.
It explores how we recognise and steward gifts in twelve different areas:
God – Vision – Relationships Volunteers – Gifts – Time – Money – Possessions – Youth – Body – Mind – Earth
A range of contributors offer real life examples of the impact of effective and generous stewardship and conversation around each theme is facilitated by the Share, Reflect, Act process. Individuals and groups are enabled to bring their own experiences and understanding to the topics.
