We are nearly half way through the month, and The Challenge is still going strong! Many readers have emailed me privately with stories of how they are being blessed through giving. I can’t describe how much that blesses me in return.
Today I want to share a video which I believe is a great reminder of why we ultimately give- as an act of worship.
Honor the Lord with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all your crops. – Proverbs 3:9
The message behind The Advent Conspiracy is simple: spend less, worship more.
RSS & email readers may have to click through to the site to view the video.
Although Christmas is still 40+ days away {eek!}, it’s never too early to give presence.

17 days left in The Challenge… are you still with me?
Day 13: http://lonestarlifer.wordpress.com/2009/11/13/the-30-day-giving-challenge-day-13/
I’ve seen this – and it’s a great message.
While I haven’t been active in this as I’d hoped I would be, I thought I’d pass along something I heard this morning:
Our pastor was discussing our annual call to action (giving through volunteering, donations, etc.). Obviously the need is greater than before, when means may be less. But he reminded us: Nothing is too small. No one should be ever afraid to give because what they can offer is too “little” in their eyes.

This challenge is helping me in so many ways. Thank you so much for encouraging me to be a better person, and speak more freely about my faith on my blog. Something I would have never done before. 🙂
