Hi, I'm Carla from Illinois, and I'm a Revive Our Hearts monthly partner.

One reason I support this ministry is the life-giving and life-changing power of the

word of God being clearly taught and how it's affected my life.

Enjoy today's episode of Revive Our Hearts brought to you in part by the monthly partner team.

You and I know that when we see lightning, something's coming next.

That's right, Thunder. Here's Randy Alcorn.

You look at scripture and you're just struck by that lightning of God's grace that

produces the thunder of giving and if the thunder of giving isn't there it

suggests that the lightning of God's grace is not.

Welcome to the Reviver Hearts podcast for November 29th, 2022.

I'm Danne Gresch, and our host is Nancy Demas Welgamoo, the author of choosing gratitude. Well, welcome back to revive our hearts and this wonderful conversation we're having this week with author and my longtime friend Randy Alcorn.

We're making available to our listeners this week

his powerful power-packed book called The Treasure Principal.

It's a little book, but it is so full of rich insight and how we can

discover the secret of joyful giving. So Randy, thank you for joining us again today for this conversation on a

matter that is so dear to Christ's heart, but also dear to our hearts.

It's great to be back with you again, Nancy.

Randy, I'm just curious, you've talked and written so much about the subject of giving, the

grace of giving, the joy that comes through giving, how to give, and talking particularly about investing our resources in Kingdom

Ventures in the Lord's work, do you remember how or when or why it was that you early on cultivated a heart and a love forgiving.

Like where did this passion come from?

Do you have any recollection of that?
