Follow Me Practice Generosity Adult Reflection Guide

Generosity is often understood as an act of kindness that involves giving out of one's abundance to others in need. Biblical teachings describe the practice as something a little different. Generosity is simply, and profoundly, love in action. We practice generosity in all the ways we love God and love our neighbors.

It is a practice rooted in justice and concerned with all the world's needs. One may not have a penny to give but can still be plenty generous. Generosity is an expectation not a simple kindness to be observed. Generosity is caring for our neighbors' mind, body, spirit, and life in the community.
