Cultivate | Hilarious Giving

Oviedo City Church Sermons

Have you ever felt obligated to give something to someone? Have you ever felt pressured to make a contribution or donation? That is just not enjoyable. On the flip side, have you ever been excited to give someone a gift, and the giving of it made you feel good? Have you ever given someone a gift, and their face lit up with joy, and then yours did, too? Why can't all of our gift-giving be of that second variety where both the giver and the recipient are thrilled, happy, and full of joy? That is the kind of giving God wants us to experience and that Paul writes about in this passage from 2 Corinthians.
