As we wrap up our series on Generosity in God’s kingdom story, we’ve shared about the importance of giving in ways that lead to flourishing for both givers and receivers, and the challenges of measuring the impact of our work according to God’s story, and not just outputs of our ministry efforts.

As we’ve been writing this month around the theme of Generosity in God’s kingdom story, we’ve shared about the importance of giving in ways that lead to flourishing for both givers and receivers. God calls us to live into God’s story of change: pursuing His goals but also His way of achieving those goals. This raises the question of effectiveness, though. How do we know that we’re giving well?

There’s a joy in walking alongside generous people. Over the years, I’ve come to see our gift partners not merely as supporters of Chalmers’ mission, but as fellow pilgrims on the journey of faith. Their generosity, wisdom, and trust in God’s provision have not only funded this work, but they’ve also shaped the soul of our organization. And they have taught me much.
