TWO CHALLENGES

Hey Goodbook coomunity,

I gave our congregation two challenges this Sunday, and I wanted to invite you to join the fun.  In the message we talked about how much God gives us and how we can respond to God's generosity.

To hear the message online, click here: THE GIVING GOD

The two challenges are:

1) To praise God every day this week.  Rather than focus on what we don't have or wish we had, this week we will focus on the good gifts God gives us and praise God for them.  Maybe you can make a gratitude journal every day of things you have to be thankful for, and then praise God.  It could be a fun activity with your family or kids.

2) Give a thank offering to God every day.  The thank offering is something above and beyond our regular offering.  It is a gift of love, and act of generosity, born out of a grateful heart.  So you could make a special donation, help someone in need, give a gift, write a note of appreciation.  The possibilities are endless.

Our family is in.  How about you?

If you are game for the challenges, please send me your stories of how you praise God and what kind of thank offerings you give.  I would love to hear how you are giving God praise and sharing God's blessings with others.
