Show Description: Whether we are in a recession or not, I am not sure. But it is true that many of us are feeling an economic pinch. And when we feel an economic pinch, we have a tendency to stop giving to non-profits. Giving is down, and it is down sharply. But this is exactly the time giving needs to go up, both because there are more needs out there and because these are usually great times to refocus our life on what matters. Join the conversation as we look at giving in hard economic times.

Quotes to Live By
"Join with others in following my example, brothers, and take note of those who live according to the pattern we gave you. For, as I have often told you before and now say again even with tears, many live as enemies of the cross of Christ. Their destiny is destruction, their god is their stomach, and their glory is in their shame. Their mind is on earthly things. But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body."
-Philippians 3:17-21
