Read MoreIn 2 Corinthians 9, Pauls attempts to challenge our thinking regarding giving. It is a law of the universe that if you sow bountifully you will reap bountifully.

Giving can be something that has a negative connotation, but Paul presents it as an opportunity in light of all that God has given us. Giving is a demonstration. We have, in giving, an opportunity to demonstrate our love for Christ.
