About the Book

This "spin-off’ from A Lesson in Forgiving, realizes the theological relationship between forgiving and giving. In an age when prosperity teaching is popular, it is necessary to teach foundational truths. "Give, and it shall be given unto you good measure, pressed do....,, announces the promised teachings and blessings of Jesus to the masses. This guarantee holds true for us today. A Lesson In Giving expresses the scriptural approach to giving as God gave His son Jesus, a ransom for our sin.

While writing this book and exploring the original Greek of the New Testament, it became evident that Jesus not only taught the principle of giving, but He is the nine forms of the verb "give." To know that Jesus gave as only God could give lets us know that to give is to God! This particular book has meant a great deal to me. I have often been told that I was "a giver" and now I understand that my "giving" was and is an expression of God. My prayer is that all that read this book will become "givers" because, "you cannot beat God’s giving! No matter how you try!
