Big Idea

We’re all wired for generosity, but we express it in various ways.

Scripture

Psalm 139:13-14

Opening Questions

1. If someone gave you $10,000, how would you spend it?
2. What personal assessments have you taken, and what have you learned about yourself? Some examples are Myers-Briggs, the Enneagram and Spiritual Gifts Tests

Bible Discussion

3. What does Psalm 139:13-14 teach us about the nature and character of God? How does the imagery of knitting used in this passage deepen our understanding of God’s involvement in our creation?
4. What does it mean to you personally to be “fearfully and wonderfully made” by God?

Challenge

We hope all of us are encouraged to recognize how we are wired to reflect our generous God. Every one of these profiles is good! Understanding how we are wired can help us grow into people who sow generously. The hope and prayer for this series is that we become more generous, just like the One who gave everything for us.
