Faith Stretchers
Primary Motivation: Spiritual Growth
As a Faith Stretcher, you see generosity as part of your faith journey. You stretch yourself to give because you believe God will be faithful and reward your faithfulness. You don’t necessarily expect the reward for your faithfulness to be monetary. Knowing you are growing spiritually through your generosity is enough incentive.
